LT front bumper on SS? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

jcaligood · 07-10-2016, 10:03 AM

I recently purchased a 2010 2SS. I've been looking at other SS's and their front bumpers look so much better than mine. I cant pinpoint what it is though. My car doesnt have halo headlights. But the front just looks so bad to me. Can anyone tell me what it is? Maybe because i havent blacked out the bowtie yet.
Does my SS have a 2010 LT bumper? Ive looked through google but all other models have halos.

also, my SS badge is missing from the front bumper, which makes me think i have an LT bumper?

you wouldn't have the mail slot if you had a LT bumper. You have the SS bumper

That is an SS front cover with an OEM splitter, non RS. You can buy the front SS, it just clips in place.

You have the mail slot, it's an ss bumper, halo head lights don't change the look of the bumper cover at all . Maybe a heritage grill is what you're seeing different?

are you thinking about 14-15 camaros?

You Have a splitter so it already looks better than most

2LT/RS with Heritage Grill and GFX Splitter

As everyone mentioned, yours is the non-RS '10-'13 SS front fascia with a GM splitter, minus the SS badge.

Looks good to me! I would black out the bowtie and maybe upgrade the lighting to RS if you want halos... otherwise you have the best looking font fasica out there (including the 6th generation)!

Thanks for the input. I guess what is throwing me off is the RS lights. Looks much better that way. But yes, i have the GM ground effects package.
Has anyone blacked out their bowtie using plasti-dip? Or is film better?
Also, any opinions on these headlights? They are priced cheap but im not sure about the quality.

I used some vinyl to black out both my back and front bowties. The front takes a little work because of the curved surface, but looks really good. Try a little searching on the forums (or YouTube), there should be plenty of threads (or vids) talking about blacking out the 'ties.

Edit: I removed the SS badge, the red clashes and the badge itself always felt like it threw the symmetry off.
