haha thanks guys, well the end product will 98-02 front end, front dropped 1.3 inches with prostars, tints all around with ghost flames up front:twisted: i really want to make it to a lot of meets when the car is done

Yours looks like you actually got all the right parts haha. I made my brackets, cut my stock LT1 foam into shape and made my own front bumper support... totally forgot to ask for them cause I was excited to get the head lights and bumper for $500.

I switched mine cause I had wrecked the car and the front end had the clear coating blistering away. Stock LS1 brackets wouldn't work for me anyway, my core support sits about 1/2" lower on the passenger's side now. It's all in front of the front suspension though so it doesn't affect alignment.

If you want to see real hammer talent you should see the truck I have been working on for the past 3 years ;) Core support sat about 1" further back on one side... door wouldn't open and the fender and door were peeled outward. I used a grinder, BFH, and 30 pack to fix it. The fenders are held on with huge amounts of pressure; whoever unbolts it will more then likely die.

I was looking for a V6 firebird front bumper, a few junkyards in PA had them a few months back... didn't feel like driving 2.5 hours to get one though. Not one junkyard in NJ or PA had a TA bumper.

I got my bumper for $50 off a wrecked Trans Am that some kid wrapped around a tree.
