Yeah, so I'm definitely gonna do this and I'm gonna swap it with the carbon fiber G5 trunk on top of that. I shouldn't have any problems right?!? It's the same thing...

I had a friend with g5 gave him my back ss/sc bumper and fit with my stock tail lights. I don't see why not go for it.

Everything is interchangeable, there is a bracket on each side of the bumper that you need to take off when changing from cobalt to g5, but that's it.

I also didn't know there was a carbon g5 trunk. Is there a picture somewhere?

If you read my post, it wasnt aimed at you. EcoTec said it was the same bumper, its not. However, they are completely interchangable. Badge engineering at its best! Love you GM!

I didnt mean it like that, Just meant big deal that I didnt mention the bumpers, and that "I" know the difference..
