^This. I like the look of it, but it should be functional. A little extra air under the hood to cool things off would be nice.

You'll have to trim your wheel wells... they're too wide at the bottom for the v6 fascia... as when I put the SS fascia on mine they were too narrow.

I like the lower grill/fascia of the SS, but not the mail slot.. As others say, it would definitely be better if functional. ZL1 definitely takes the crown though.

Just figured I'd pass this on to you guys in case you've never seen it before...For the hiding water after a wash...I've bought one of these and it's awesome! Works great on rims and sidemarker lights, etc after a wash.
It blows "warm air" at a pretty high rate. I think I purchased it for ~$65 or so on Amazon. But it's pretty much sold everywhere.

The SS deserves something more aggressive looking than the V6. I don't mind those SS owners putting the V6 nose on an SS, but what is ugly is putting the blank off plate on a SS nose trying to hide the mail slot, that just looks cheap.
