2010 Camaro styling (bumper) on a 4th Gen?! Talking about redesigning the front of 4th Gens (and other parts of the car) to look like the 2010 Camaro. Bringing it up because I just saw the same thing for Mustangs...

Don't know how I feel about it but I'm meeting with the company for other projects and have a 2010 Camaro bumper laying around for R & D so... Thoughts?

why? if you want a 5th gen buy a 5th gen, if you like the 4th gen buy a 4th gen. i don't really get the whole hybrid generation thing except maybe some of the C1 and C2 on C5 kits because buying a C1/C2 has become damn near impossible for the common man. but to make a 4th gen look like a brand new car? why?

Not sure I think this is good idea either and I'll pay to see a Dick Harrell bumper happen first but it peeked my curiosity...

I just want that 5th gen style grill in abs plastic. Are you any closer on this one. I don't like the billet cause the bars are too close together.
Your targa top would change the shape of the a pillar, b pillar, and the rear hatch?
Edit: ... cause that's really what has to be changed to get the 5th gen look. That, and the doors, and rear half. So pretty much a little bit more than the front end.

I doubt it would look good on the 98+ cars because of the curves on the hood going back from the headlights. Theres no way to blend that, you'd need a new hood at least for sure on the 98+ cars. The 93-97 cars would be easier, but I still can't imagine it looking good. I'd still like to see pics, or at least a concept photoshop just out of curiosity however..
It might not be a good idea just because of the shape of both gens..If someone could redesign the bumpers on the 4th gen that would be great....comparing it to a corvette or cobra's rear styling the camaro got a fat ***!
