SS to ZL1 front bumper swap

Just curious if this is a straight swap or other modifications would need to be made. Unfortunately mine is damaged and will need fixed. Might as well upgrade if there's not much to it.

The ZL1 is wider than the SS. I think some have done it but it isn’t simple. There are aftermarket kits that look like a ZL1 but fit the SS. There are a number of threads that discuss the conversion if you search.

Its pretty much a straight swap aside from the Fog lights... I upgraded mine to the ZL1 bumper and love every second of it.

Wider fenders and different hood dimensions. Won't bolt on clean from other threads. Don't really know past that since I lost interest in it. Search the forums .

Yes, the 5th Gen was pretty easy. The 6th Gen is a different story.

There are aftermarket kits that you can buy that will directly bolt up. There's a thread on this here..

Thanks for the link. Seriously considering the ICON conversion

Nothing like being disappointed when you think you have someone to play with on the roads and then realize it's just a poser... smh. Only kidding.
