Sorry couldn't resist..
Is it possible the metal piece that supports it along the top and bolts into the fender has rusted out?

Start hitting up local junkyards and part whoring. Thats what I do once a week, I go to the only j/y in my area and do fbody check. If theres anything good I'll buy it and store it away

Your signature says that future plans include "Z28 body conversion." Well, now's the time to get started. If you're replacing the bumper anyway, might as well get a Z28 bumper or you'll be replacing it again.

very true, i just need to find a place that has the bumper itself and not just the cover.
Also on the GFx for the rocker panels, what am i goin to need? I know the rear bumper will bolt right up along with the front,besides drilling the hole for the fenders Fx but im not to clear about the rocker panels.

Ok thanx,I just want to make sure i get everything and dont leave anything out.
Is there a diffrence in the SC bumper and the z28? The bumper itself not the cover.
