I actually read the how to on the Paint section.. i think its creative and gives the car the LS look while still remaining semi stock.

6LE Has had this in the works for a minute now. IIRC the mold has been made and awaiting shipment. I have one of the first for being the test car going on my '96z28. IMHO 6LE's looks better, especially around grill and turn signal area.

I actually saw a couple photos of 6le's bumper when they were working on it I think they put up pics and took em back down or maybe they were leaked but personally I didnt like the integrated splitter without the widebody quarters like the DH car has, and I have way too many projects to start somethin that big.
