I noticed it's much easier to check the level of the windshield wiper reservoir now LOL

Seriously though a concern that I'm having is small animals wanting to get inside of the car with the easy access through the DRL area

I bought the bumper the other day, got the fog drls, but Im struggling to find a 14/15 hood. I've only seen 3 options and am just leading to the stock hood, but I really want to get the VIS racing AMS hood

Duraflex makes a 6th gen style zl1 hood for the 5th. They claim it fits all years.

I'm not a fan of their quality but would love that style

Ooh, that actually sounds like a really good idea. Mesh + paint = hidden. I'm curious to see what that would look like.

Ikonmotorsports bumpers on ebay or amazon Its not on their website for 5th gen.

They only have 1 bumper it fits all years from 2010-2015
2010-2013 listings and 2014-2015 listings will throw you off as well as will not fit RS.

Ignore both statements.

2010-2013 will always come with a set of headlights as the claim made is the bumper will not fit with stock 2010-2013 headlights or RS headlights ( harness )

2014-2015 will have both headlight listings and stand alone

The bumper itself is the same across all listings.

I have a 2011 1lt RS and bought the stand alone 2014-2015 listing. I'll post in here once received and as the project continues.

This thread has been great for me look over it from start to finish you'll be amazed what you'll find out.

For example it seems it was built on 2010-2013
Fits 2014-2015 Hoods better may require cutting to fit hood latch on 2010-2013 builds.

If you want 6th gen style headlights go with 2014-2015 form factor as it will not cut the DRLs but will make a slight gap thats not noticeable

Stock 6th gen fogs will fit fitment wise but will need a custom harness or cutting of wires.

I'll be rereading it too cause as I posted this I forgot the info on RS harness.

I have yet to narrow down my hood.

Also I was too quick and hit buy it now when I saw it because at the time it was sold put so when I saw it I jumped on it. Use make an offer.

If you happen to find a good one can you link it on here? And is there any sort of modifications that I’ll have to make for the ‘14 good to fit perfectly or would it just be a simple install.

Edit: found a 2014 hood from Rock Auto going for 250
