from all the post i've read and from what everyone tells me it will all bolt up with no mods.. i've heard the the inner fender on the front isnt quiet long enough for the ss/sc front bumper though.. it wont hurt anythin to leave it that way though..

yes....my ss bumper on my ls. the only mod you will need to do is the black covers for the fender wall. The ss model extends down more than the stock ls. So you need the SS fender wall covers

the front and rear bumpers bolt right right on, however, you might need some double sided tape to hold the side skirts to the car.

yeah i forgot to mention that.. the sides will only bolt on inside the fenders so some double sided tape would be needed to hold it on to the side of the car so it wont hang off..

looks good with out the cross bar.. i might have to try doin that myself.. its hard to get a used lip for the ss/sc bumpers.. i would have had one for free but my friend that has the ss/sc hit a dog goin down the road the other day and it busted half the bumper and lip off the car so thats not any good anymore.

Hey did anyone ever think about this... by gettin a ss kit... wouldnt it let more air in to the engine bay which in turn = more power because less heat soak.... plus does anyone think that you could add the air filter by the hole for the foglights?

o ok.. you dont have any openings in the bumper then.. the lt has the grill in the middle thats open and the fog lights. i thought you may have as lt and could just take your foglight out for the extra air to the filter.. i've been thinkin bout takin mine out for that purpose..
