98-02 firehawk front bumper cover Got a question, had an attempted theft of my 99 firehawk- He dropped the car when i showed him my new Glock but The front bumper cover got trashed being rubbed against my tahoe rear bumper. Well i decided to just repaint the whole car and it looks great but the body shop can't seem to get the bumper cover right. Got a 98-02 trans am bumper cover but the hood seems to rest on top of the cover instead of lining right up. Im a mechanic not a body guy so if anyone knows a part # for a 98 -02 firehawk front bumper cover or if the one i have needs to be modified i'd love to know. I'll post pics as soon as i get the chance to go get some. Thanks for any help! |
Did they bend something causing it not to line up or is it something different between the two parts that's not letting it line up like it's suppose to? |
I thought the bumper had to be cut to allow the Firehawk hood? |

the "firehawk" front bumper should be the same as the formula/V6 bumper. atleast thats what i have always thought. yet still the trans am bumper should be the same around the hood. ill try to look though |
the 99 i have is the trans am and not the firebird, I was thinking that also. i just still can't find anything concrete yet but if i get some downtime at my work i'll try to look there also. |
well if you google "firehawk badge" you can get some good views of the bumper fitment on both the firebird and trans am bumpers |

got the bumper cover trimmed and looks great. Thanks for all the input! Will get pics posted on my account soon:) |
any pics before and after and im glad to hear it turned out right . |
I have had the same problem but they don't make firehawk bumpers or hoods anymore so modding will be necessary. Instead of Cutting the bumper I might just get a superhawk hood instead. |
