2019 hood on 16-18 models?

Lemmy Camaro · 11-23-2018, 10:43 PM

Looking to see if the body lines would line up on the hoods for the 2019 SS models on my 2017 SS. Anyone know if this is possible?

Only one way to find out...just like the rear end swap I'm about to do...lol

I would do the swap if it fits. It's the only thing I like about the 19 SS

I agree the new hood looks better

The rear ends are different?

Totally.

Pretty positive the lines and the angles they travel on the 19 hood are slightly off from the lines in the 16-18 front facia. It may not look bad though. Hard to say without doing it like others have suggested.

The rear end is different if you look at the bottom it has a indent as well as where the tail lights are they are indented downward.

He meant the rear bumper cover.

somebody do it just do it lol

I believe the hood will fit. however, putting them side by side, the lines won't match up from the hood to the bumper (the creases) been thinking about it as well so lots of research. the fender/fitment appears to be the same.

cooper1965 · 11-28-2018, 04:18 PM

Fenders are the same part number 16-19.

The lines on the front bumper, in particular to where the lines from each generations hood meets up with towards the center, seem very different. It might be a deal breaker on them.

Yeah I figured that out a little later, guess I should have been thinking cosmetic in this thread but my mind went rear (diff) end.
