All this hate towards an inanimate object makes me wonder about the lives people have as haters. What if someone doesn't like the look of your wife or girl friend, how do you respond? Hate is so one sided and usually is indicative of other underlying character traits. It is one thing to comment on a style or trend and give an opinion but, lately comments here transcend that and actually come across as hateful with intent to downgrade or resent something afflicting their world. Just try to be more subjective and not hate on someone else's car purchase.

It’s not *that* hate like the raw term, or the kind that refers to a person. It’s just frustration that our beloved cars were botched for no reason and there’s nothing we can do about that. Meaning, again, that we are forced to look somewhere else for a new car. Which is extremely annoying for long-time fans

This kills me to say it but I actually like the way AA makes the 19 front end look better than my stock 2018. How much is the upgrade?

Dr yankee, you have just nailed it.

"Hate" is a label attached to it by some observers, it has nothing to do with the actual emotion. I bet any of those "haters" could easily share a drink with owners the "hated" refresh and have a great time.

Hood fitment looks a bit sketchy, but it's a great conversion indeed.

I like it.
I’d need to see it in person before purchasing though.

I think it’s great that there’s a bumper option being marketed to the 2019/2020 crowd.

I really just don’t see the problem here. If you were to replace the front fascia then why not pick the one you like the best?

Why not the same hate towards people upgrading their stock non npp exhaust with another axle back? Should they just buy another car instead? ZL1 start button? Nonsense. Will it make YOUR car less worth or less enjoyable? I wouldn’t even care if someone took on the ZL1 1LE badges on their 2.0 turbo. As long as it makes them happy.

See but the problem with today's society is that everyone is so f'ing entitled to do and say whatever they feel like, ignorant and bigoted or not, that simply having an opinion is being a "hater". In reality, it isn't... it's having an opinion.

My opinion is that the Fakie ZL1 bumper looks Fiero-to-Ferrari kit car fake and if y'all can't see that then I'd suggest making an appointment at your eye care professional.

Glad I joined this forum! You guys are funny
I guess I'm in the minority...I love my 2019! My first Camaro was a '69 SS I picked up at a junk yard for $300. Had no motor.transmission and only had 1 seat (passenger seat at that!)...owned every generation since then. I wanted a 5th gen but passed for several reasons. I saw a 2019 and fell in love again! I do wish I could find a bowtie replacement to get rid of the chrome outline and already have the Black SS emblems ordered.

I dislike the DRL's, from the post they seem to be different hues of white. That would get on my very last nerve knowing they didn't match.

As far as the overall bumper, I'm the minority that actually likes the 2019 front end. It's really grown on me, and when you see it in person it looks even better IMO.

I got my "Fake" AA ZL1 Bumper with splitter from someone who sold their car. Personally I can't wait to get it on my 16' 2SS to match my "Fake" ZL1 Soiler. LOL. I'm not trying to look like a ZL1 specifically, I jus like some of the ZL1's exterior styling ques.
