No way I could turn down a deal like that.

SRZ - here ya go man , I added the character line back in . What do the guys that have actually paid money to 6LE think ?


That's what's up, thanks! I like the LS1 grill, I can cram more air into my IC w/ that sucker then what I have now esp if I incorporate McNord's idea that he's got going on in another thread.

I think the headlights on the ls1 cars make them look like a catfish

the lt1 headlights is my primary reason i like it better. Im talking looks tho, the actual performance of the oem lt1 lights is crap. but theres always hid kits

6le how many have paid up? im close to having the funds together but i have no paypal . also have you and the guys that have paid come up with the actual bumper design as now im confused as to which photoshop this will be based off now. i think the consensus is pic #2 from the 1st post which i like but understand the need and use of the ls1 grill so there are more grill options for us but now theres a few shops floating in here and its confusing a lil. so if ya dont mind maybe 4ltvert you and the guys that have paid can come together and get the finished "shop" that this bumper will be based off of and someone can pm me on how to setup a paypal or other payment options. thanks

I think its a fairly safe assumption that the pic I put below would be the final design or very close to the final design . That being the original design with a factory LS1 grill opening. Both guys that have paid like it and its the most cost effective to fab and build .

Thanks man, you tried. Guess it's time for me to go dumpster diving in the junkyards and graft an LS1 to an LT1 the old fashion way.

if i got the op's deal mentioned above and agreed on would 6le consider me the 5th and 2nd I really like that bumper design.

I have an aftermarket stocker and it looks like crap, wavy on the ds headlamp bucket and ds nose. a new OEM one would cost at least $400

would rather change up the look a little.

pretty sure if they did make this bumper for 5 of us, they would add it to their website and sell it as they would then have the original mold still. so theres your replacement if u loose the original.

i think alot of people are up in the air about being the test production if it turned out like the photoshop im sure it would get lots of attention and potential buyers. more than "another" ls1 camaro bumper imo

I'll make an ordering page and new thread tonight. I'll give it until Sunday and if we're still at two paid (anyone who said they'd meet me with cash I need it this week) then I'm sending out refunds...
