2020 camaro SS with previous 2018 front end possible?
Hello everyone , first of all I’m new to this forum, hope is the right thread.
My question is: is it possible to change the entire front end of a 2019/2020 Camaro ss with the old previous 2016/2018 Camaro SS, buying headlights, bumper, grill and so on? I know that dimension is the same( same front splitter, hood, side fenders), brake ducts, radiators etc... Thank you guys |

Yes, it is possible, you can find a lot if used parts on ebay. Only one thing can cause problem, 2019 model year have automatic beam correction, 16-18 manual.

How can the old headlight cause a problem on the new model?

Depends if the headlight socket plugs are different on a 2016-2018 than a 2019-2020. Usually mid generation fascia redesigns do mean different connectors for Headlights and some other things. Only way to know would be to look at the connectors on the back of each headlight. Usually no one reverts a front fascia back to an older style and more likely to go aftermarket first.

That’s my question too! Why do you want to change the front end?

Usually no one upgrade his car with a previous older style I know that, certainly this is a subjective thing...but I think the 2016 Camaro style is the best style ever. Rear don’t mind so much it’s not that ugly . My dealer should have a 2018 Camaro so he’ll try to see if the headlight match with the old one. This mods SHOULD cost about 2k€ less that 1,8k$, maybe I can buy the Morimoto LED headlights and save 300-400$ as the OEM are 800$ each *♂️. If this thing works I’ll post pictures, would be great I think...fingers crossed
