Rear TA bumper on Camaro? Is this possible. Im gonna get a new exhaust but i really hate how you can see the exhaust pipes after the muffler when you look at it from the side. The TA has that great bumper that has individual openings for the ehxaust. Just wondering if it can be done.
Re: Rear TA bumper on Camaro? I don't see why it wouldn't fit. It'd look really bad with the rest of the car though. The T/A has the ground effects and front bumper to complement the angularities of the rear bumper. Get the CME kit for your Camaro, that's the sweetest look to the back of the Camaros, IMO.

Re: Rear TA bumper on Camaro? The one Thunder Racing has looks ghetto.
The original one that came as a special option on the SS's is the best looking center mount exhaust (CME). Find a friend with an SS and have them order it. The fascia isn't too expensive. I think it was low-mid 100s.
The piping you can have an exhaust shop do.
Oh and you want to talk to SLP Engineering. http://www.slpeng.com.
When speaking to them, make sure you have the VIN # of an SS. I think the SS might have had to have originally come with the CME kit, but I'm not sure. Call and ask I guess.
Good Luck!

Re: Rear TA bumper on Camaro? I think the rear fenders are different between the T/As and the camaros, I dont think the rear bumper would even fit. As said above it would not look right anyway. Go with the center mount from SLP.

Re: Rear TA bumper on Camaro? It will DEFINETLY not fit, unless you have someone fab it in. The camaros bumper is straight across, while a firebird goes up when it hits the taillights, and then it goes up again between the taillights. Look at the back of the two and you will see what I mean.
