2011 Camaro 2SSRS 6 speed manual
I bought this 2011 Camaro 2SSRS 6 speed manual 80K miles from an auction almost 2 months ago for $6,600 with fees. $190 in parts & 45 minutes later I took it for a test drive. This was going to be a donor for my 1973 Camaro project but is too nice so I'm keeping it.
I'm guess previous owner hit something small on the hwy or fell asleep then went off the road. No airbags went off & no seats belts were locked. Passenger lower control arm & strut were bent. Right front rim was broke as well. Lower right side of bumper is missing. No other damaged noted, paint, interior and convertible top are in great shape, AC blows cold. I was able to clear all fault codes. Came with a $1,500 carbon fiber hood, pistol grip shifter, LED lighting, Eibach lowering springs, ZL1 rear diffuser & green accents that I have removed. I got some DWS06+ tires (85% tread) with BMW rims for $500, 20x8.5 245/40/20 in front, 20x10 275/35/20 in rear. The BMW rims are 11lbs lighter per wheel than what was on it. I installed TPMS sensors on the BMW rims so those are working as well. I'm going with a Gen 5 ZL1 inspired front bumper with some LED lights.

This is the front bumper I'm going with. Already have the paint but been on vacation for the last 4 weeks so should get the bumper painted soon.

Car is looking great, I think you made the right decision on fixing it. You can find another donor for your 73.

Test fitted the new bumper today. Only 2 bolts holding it on so I didn't close the hood but fitment looks good.
