Please post in the appropriate section… moving to Appearance

 

how was it to get the bumper on did go on the same as the original or was it different

 

If your going to replace the front bumper then you would need to add the side and rear pieces too. Otherwise the bumper will hang down lower than the sides and will look kind of funny imo.

 

I have the SS 2.4 bumper cover on my LS car. It bolts right in. The bumper cover on the LS has a black deflector hanging off it that will not work on the SS. The SS has a deflector hanging below the a/c condensor. I'm not sure what the purpose of the deflector is but I am without deflectors now. If your original bumper has the foglights then you can just transfer them over or you will have to get the lights and the mounting brackets.

 

hey the car looks sweat do you remember how much all the parts coast

 

thanks man i appreciate the comment.

all the mods together are about 3K ( rims, intake, shortshifter,lowering springs, rear spoiler. front bumper. rear valence, and what no (read the list for all the mods : ) t)

out of curiosity, how come you just didnt buy the ss/sc, it looks the same, but would be faster than yours. is it the cost? or are you just into the "tuning"?
BTW your car does look nice... the wheels are pretty good...

 

its cool u ask tho. i dont mind cuz im used of it by now. haha. well when i first got my car it was in April and out here in Massachusetts they werent avaialbe yet and i couldnt wait cuz my old car died on me so not having a car for a month or 2 would of of been impossible. so i just went w/ the base cobalt . i have a lot of plans for it as you can see some of my old ones. my goal over the winter is to get it turbod and also cams. but only time can tell if ill be able to pull that off or not. and i do like the "tuning" part of aswell since i got it that way and not bought it that way.
