Default 71 camaro bumper question

Is there any way i can put a split bumper on a full bumper 71 camaro. like would it tear up the grill ifI tried removing it to put a split bumper on it?

To get the correct installation you need to replace the header panel, valance and bumpers. Then you need an endura (plastic) nose piece. The parking lights will be relocated to the header panel instead of on the valance. A RS grille is also different than a standard one. You can just replace the bumpers if you do not mind the difference in appearance.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/mr38/2042011393/OK so this Looks to me like a Full bumper car that got turned into a Split bumper. The headlights and the blinkers are definately different. and someone that knew about camaros could tell you that. but it still looks good. in my opinion. how hard would it be to do something like that?

You are correct. That car has a standard front with split bumpers. Big give=away is the parking lights in the lower valance and standard grille.
Not hard to do, just get the bumpers and bolt on.
They are available here:
