What I would do is not modify the bumper I cut into the radiator support.

If I remember correctly I had to cut roughly 1.5 inches in and about 6 inches across on both ends with a cut off wheel, and tried to taper it to make it look factory then just took some trim black spray paint to cover up the bare aluminum.

I haven't been able to line them up either if you adjust them outward the light beams go too much to the sides of the streets and not the road I tried it.

Is the bumper hitting the radiator core support? I had to cut mine to make it fit.


Mine was fine didn't cut the support

At first i would say paint match the caps / flares etc, but i like the look. Even the racing stripe - Unique.

Looks sick! I don't know why Chevy never made like this in the first place, would've saved a lot of guys a lot of money...
