This bumper had me drooling. I would think a 97 (for the interior updates) hardtop Z with this bumper a nice cowl hood, brake upgrade and rims would be a $$$ setup

Looks nice, I purchased something from Extreme Dimensions, Driven by style for my beater too, haven't put the piece on yet though so I'm hoping it fits. It was made by duraflex. Is that the same material that this is?

Still drooling over this.

Now we need someone to make plastic rectangle headlights that have a halo and normal bulb.

Front End
That video was posted March 18th I wonder how he got one so soon. Some of use on the original order were told they weren't shipping out until May due to QC issues.

But it sure does make it look like a LS1 I had to do a double take at first.

Will you need to modify anything to make it fit?

The 6LE bumper looks a lot better than the bumper in the YouTube video. The 6LE has a different look to it but that LT1 style feel when looking at it. The bumper in the video looks, just, ehhh IMO.

I seriously can't wait to see the outcome. I'm afraid it'll look awesome and I'll end up buying one.

How do you mount a 98-02 grille?
