Default VFN rear bumper

Has anyone installed one? If so, how did it turn out? (Fit and finish)

Anybody? I'm looking at getting this because it has the cut-out for wheelie bars... I don't think there is a clean way of doing it with a stock bumper cover, but I could be wrong.

Dude, you ahve any idea how much work it will be to put that in????
What're you gonna do to attatch it, lights?
That attathces with duz fasteners, need major fabrication-MUCH less work just cutting the bumper you have.
The Camaro bumper is pretty high as it is, unless your car is slammed your wheelie bars should clear or you could just notch the bumper where the bars pass under it.
Forget that vfn piece.

Thanks for the reply. My car does sit pretty low, so that was one of the reasons I was looking at this cover. I can cut out for the factory lights, and I think I can get it on the car without too much trouble... But I could be wrong on that. I'm going to buy a new rear cover anyway, so I thought I'd get some info on this one before I pulled the trigger on a stock cover.

Oh no... This Rookie wants to see it done on another car first. Then if "necessary" I might tackle it...
