front bumper question???
So i bought my 91, rs with front bumper damage which was un repairable, so throughout the long time i hav owned it i could only find a i rock bumper with the bowtie. I bought the bumper because it was in flawlesss cond. and only 20 bucks. My question is should i use the irock bumper on my RS or schould i find a way to cut out and remove the center and incert the Rs grill?? or may just leave it alone.......

And you don't have to cut anything - the grills are just held in with screws - the RS grills have screws in the top and bottom I believe, the "Camaro" grille has screws in the top and the inner sides, and the Bowtie grill I assume are the same as the "Camaro" grilles.
Under your RS grill, you will find holes for the install of foglights if you like. REAL Camaro foglights are anywhere from $50 a set used to well over $200 for "new unused stock". WalMart has el-cheapo fog lights that look very similar abd are about $20 a set - alot of us that have better things to spend cash on at the moment settle for these. You can hunt down a used foglight switch from ebay or local JY and use the stock switch - just run 12v+ to the stock switch and a ground, the let the switch run 12v+ out to under the hood to activate a relay, and wire the foglights with direct battery power though the relay - that way you aren't running high amps through the switch and don't have to worry about fuses and such.
This is what I've done with my 92 RS.
