The best z06 front for base c6?
I want to install the z06 front (has the scoop), on my base c6. I don't want a fiberglass front. Is there a urethane bumper out there?
#2
Why not install a GS front?

2 I've found looking into it, I'm pretty sure the GS bumper will not fit properly, leaves gap with front fender. Somebody posted that before and had tried it and was working on fabricating some brackets to alleviate that gap but haven't seen anything further on it.

GS/Z Front looks OK from 10' away but up close you see the pinch, where it is pinched in to meet the narrower fenders.
What one forum member did was find a trashed Z06 bumper, cut out the scoop and had a body shop graft it into the stock bumper. Looked great.

A straight up GM Grand Sport or Z06 nose will not fit...Unless you change the fenders too.
If you go that route, you will need all new inner wells ducts, hardware..
Its why we thought of this GS/Z06 for a Base C6 in the first place.
Keeps the C6 base integrity.
Eliminates that "trying to look like a Z06?" issue.
Just swap over your lights, grille
No clearance issues!
We have a thread going now for a sale on the C6 Z06 style bumper..

This nose is from our concept and is not being built by another vendor that is selling a similar one.
