Welcome to the site, and I hope you atleast check what engine was under the hood. Cuz that to me looks like a base modle with some SS wheels, skirts and a sport rear bumper.

That looks like what happened, if you notice he has the sideskirts and everything else.

if it was actually a base and someone went through all the trouble to put all pieces together wouldn't you think they would have gotten the front bumper to finish it off? Looks like a Sport that probably had some bumper damage from a minor front end crash and then was replaced with a base model front. either way it shouldn't be like that. engine pics now!

Yeah, and even color matched mirrors. If you bought that from a dealer take it back and demand you get the right front bumper haha

lol, you do know that 2.2L and 2.4L have different lug patterns right? Theres no way a dealership would go through that trouble to put ss rims on a 2.2L.

If I were you I would be thankful that all of these people are telling you that your front bumper is wrong so that I could go get it fixed and get what I paid for, but hey, thats just me.
