Gary's Customs - Zl1 conversion. AWESOME, THANK YOU
I got a little scratch on my bumper but instead of paying the $250 to get it fixed I went ahead and ordered the ZL1 front conversion kit from Gary's customs.
I was really apprehensive about buying it pre-painted, but Gary reassured me that it would match and fit perfectly. It was pretty easy for my shop to install, and the fitment and color are PERFECT. In fact, this bumper is a MUCH cleaner fit than the stock bumper with ground effects dealer installed. Now, just waiting for my Sinister hood to come in. |

Lol instead of paying $250 let me pay $1,500 to fix the scratch
Anyways looks good I plan to get one in the future with the ZL1 upper grill also

Haha, well I had been wanting to do this for some time. I figured might as well be now. Why do the $250 now and in 6 months change it out.
Thanks for the compliment! I'm wondering about the upper grill too. It might be something I swap to from the heritage. For now, next move - SINISTER HOOD. Best of luck! |

It looks good but the bumper honestly looks a little darker than the rest of the body, not by much but you can tell. (dont know if its maybe jst the pic)

I have wanted to get the ZL1 bumper for a while now but just never pulled the trigger on it. With the mailslot delete and SLP splitter I am happy for now. I have the MPD1 Z Force hood that looks like the Sinister hood.

hmm, in person it doesn't look darker. Maybe it's the camera, or maybe I just don't have a good eye.
Nice car JustJoshin ... I went back and forth between MPD1 and the Sinister, but because mine is not a V8, the Sinister is slightly more subtle and not raised as much (less aggressive). Less swag lol. Like what you did though, that's unique. |

Aww man... beautiful. Congrats on your purchase. According to Gary, mine shipped today! The wait is killing me!! I got the ZL1 grille with it also.
He didn't provide tracking, but said they'd call me a day prior to arriving. Is this how it went down for you? Thanks for the info... |

Ya man! No shipping info provided but only took 2 or 3 days for it to get here. They called the shop the day before. The wait is almost over for you! You'll love it I'm sure. Best of luck.
