Default How come some TA's have diffrent rear bumpers?

Do some TA's have Diffrent rear bumpers?

Am I seeing things?

Or is this an aftermarket bumper?

The bumper on the white TA is the one in refrence to. This is a member on this sites TA, hope he doesnt get mad at me posting a pic of his car, but it seems very few have this rear bumper.

it's called a CETA Collectors Edition Trans Am, mine has it but it came on Collector Edition T/As in 02 before the end.. it's actually a mod some people do, i did mine some time back and i love how my car looks now with it

You could do it in gunmetal gray or something. Doesn't have to be black.

yeah, if you do it right even white, if you have the right extras on it to fit it. grey though looks good. or flat black, it's there but not standing out
