Default Vett rear, on back of a Camaro

I saw a photoshop a while ago of the back of a corvette, on the back of a Camaro, like trading bumpers kind of. Has anyone seen this in person, and does anyone know if it's possible without spending a rediculous amout of money, I have to buy all rear body pannels so I was just taking a shot since I'm going to spend $$$ anyway.

Anybody remember who that was?

I know someone that swapped a 3rd gen tail with a C4 ZR-1. It was different, I wouldn't do it. Now as for a 4th Gen Fbod and a C5, I think it would look to ugly myself. But it is their ride.
