Some up close pics of the back side of the front bumper.

Good job, thanks for this diy.

Your welcome. Enjoyed working on the Camaro today and figuring it all out. Take care

Can you show or explain how the SS badge on the grille is attached to? I want to remove my front SS badge that are on the grille.

Thanks!

awesome explanation. Thank you

Kudos for an excellent writeup hyper1SS! I just installed my rpi designs custom painted lower grill and you instructions were invaluable. I'm certain that you saved me from removing a bunch of stuff that did not need to come off and from missing a screw or two that did have to come out. I would have finished up in just over an hour if I had not breaked for lunch after getting the fascia off....l came back downstairs, installed the new grill complete, every single screw only to look on the workbench an spy the crush bumper that I forgot to install lol! I was tempted to leave the damn thing off but thought better of it and yanked the fascia back off. The grill looks good, I'll post some pics when Iget a minute. Lighting in the shop does not do it justice. Thanks again!!

The crush bumper does look a little funny (kinda toothy..), So I've been debating leaving it off when I install my SEMA grille in the spring. Then I thought to myself: they put it there for a reason, and how often are you low enough and in good enough light to really see the crush bumper through the grille?
So, I think you did the right thing

I agree :) Just installed the SEMA grille and the shock absorber does show through as 4 of those "teeth" happen to align with grille diamond holes. However, I'm sure this bumper is made to help cushion a frontal blow and act as an initial crumpling zone, and I wouldn't compromise safety for a tiny bit of esthetics.

Thread resurrection - nice writeup, thanks!

One question. As I have the European Camaro, I was thinking of instaling the fog light DRLs that are missing. Do you know if I can do the job from underneath, by simply removing the lower valence?

Hi, have to take the bumper off to add the drls. Doesn't take very long, have done it a few times now to add drls and the red hot sema grille, takes about 20 mins to take it off.

For the bolts under the front lip of the bumper, what is the name of the part that the bolts screw into?

awesome thanks

great write up, subscribed
