LOL!!! They are working on that too!!! They will have an optional dive plane kit for their front bumper!

Will the oem ZL1 bumper fit the RS model? Will it be flushed with fenders?

No! In order to do a OEM swap, you would have to change the bumper, hood, and fenders. And even then, I think there’s still some modifications required.

Nope just the bumper, hood, fenders, and side skirts and mounting hardware.

With the front bumper if I decide not to get the RS running lights do I need to pull a fuse for them or just zip tie and hide away?

Zip tie and hide away is fine. I did that for the past 5 months, I just went through extra measure of wrapping the connectors in electrical tape to semi weather proof them.

5 months later I finally put some lights back in, and they worked just fine.

Awesome thanks. I’m placing my order today for it so wanted to make sure I didn’t have to do anything crazy. Install seems pretty easy a few hours after painting

I wouldn't remove my stock bumper and install this one but if I ever had to replace my OEM bumper for whatever reason, I'd probably go with AA to change it up.

Ok I ordered this bumper. I have a '16 1lt with the sema grille. Will the upper section of the sema grille fit in the upper opening of this bumper? Obviously I know the lower won't lol. I really like my colored accent in my upper sema grille and would like to retain it if possible.

That grill was designed around the LT clips and I am not aware of it having been tried. If you do try to fit it, please update us, I'm interested myself.

Ordered the bumper and rear window louvers they just released can’t bet the price and awesome customer service from them!

My bumper is a few states away in route according to tracking. I'll be pulling my bumper in anticipation and the sema grille fitting will be the first thing I do before paint! I'll be definitely posting the results
