Nice job Mike, bumper looks great. I have to say, that looks better than the 6LE DH bumper even though the look is different.

on another note i did talk to my body shop about makin molds and were thinking about tryin to make a couple. he said he would be able to do it.
I would be more than happy with just an extended lip!

I was thinking of doing the same thing you did, implement the 6LE splitter...
Still would like to pick one of those up but not certain it looks that great on LT1 Camaros...

Looks good, I'd try to smooth out the area where it first dips back to the foglights though, make it look more like the original...

that flare on each side is the one thing that i dont particularly care for, it keeps drawing my eye. I just chose not to mention it. I agree with trying to smooth that out

i actually wanted it like that. thought it would look a little more agressive. but if i do make some molds i guess i can change it up then.

Looks good Mike! I like it, now go get the bitch painted and slap on an emblem or better yet shave the nose emblem...... ?

No offense mark but i like mike's better, it just flows better. I think the thing about yours is the sharp angles and hard lines at the bottom, it's just too abrupt for the smooth curvy lines of the LS1 4th gen body.

I had told mark in march about my plan to cut a stock bumper and fit it to another bumper, you guys just beat me to it The bumper i am making for my camaro is pretty much gonna be an exact copy of the original.

Im not really a fan of the 6LE bumper, and i also dont really like how this one is moulded by the fog lights, the original sonoco just flows so well, im just gonna add a few of my own touches to it to make it a bit diffrent, but its gona flow very well with my modified Trans Am side skirts, and moulded rear lip
