I like the set-up ... especially the front view. It should be the Impala SS from the factory, as you can't tell the SS from the LTZisher ones except for the badges and the rims.

Don't care for the rims either, look off the '98 era Regal. There's only like 10 different styles of FWD rims out there anyway, the SS's have a unique look. I've had more comments on stealing the stock rims off my MCSS than any other car I've had, so I had to buy wheel locks for it.

BuffaloSS - one step closer to the MCSS front end?

Do you have to buy the car with the package on it or can you buy the pieces separately

Sorry guys, I guess I wasn't clear. Forget all the other crap, it's the rear spoiler I was talking about. Doesn't it suit the car way better than the current one? It's more like the duck tail that was on the 94-96 and early 2000's. Too me an "wing" has no business on an Impala of any sort.

Yeah, sure looks like it...that's what i'm aiming for...something a bit more aggressive. Like you said, the difference between the SS and the LT is not much. The problem with the Regency valance is that it's not much more than the ugly stick-on thing that Razzi offers...I don't want overlapping seams.

After looking at a MC and an Imp from the front, the lower fascia on the MCSS makes such a difference that the headlights are actually not bad looking. I've hated the "bug-eyed" look on my car since i got it, which is why i did what i did with the vinyl to lessen their appearance. The valance makes all the difference.

Agree on the val, digg the front and rear. Maybe needs some door pieces like the last gen GP.

Still think the headlights are "loud" on the MCSS - seriously thinking of painting the inside bezels black on mine.

LOL!

I think the front and back are needed on the stock ImpSS to kick up it's aggression. Look at the Dodge, looks mean standing still, and it's a 4-door.
