Front grill on a V6 will have NO badge unless it has the RS package. V8 cars will have Silver SS badges or Red SS badges if it has the RS package.
SS cars have the Mail slot and the bottom grill of the front bumper is different.
Here is a comparison.
V6 1LT car on Left, 1SS car on right (thanks to the member: Number 3, on Camaro5.com)
Check out this link ( http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14642 ) for more pictures showing the difference in wheels, the rear of the SS with the spoiler and the 1LT without the spoiler. The only cars that are going to be difficult to tell is when the V6 has the RS package, being it will have the same size wheels as the SS has on it then.. otherwise the 1LS, 1LT and 2LT all have smaller/different wheels than the 1SS and 2SS cars do.

The V8 tips are bigger, and the diffuser on the rear bumper is slightly more aggressive looking too.

Those front bumpers are too similar, I don't see the point in the extra effort it took to design, mold, produce, & stock both of them. They should have made it look much more agressive, or all the same.
