Default Body Kit Question

I'm sure most of you are familiar with the different body kits made for the 98-02 camaros

My question is that the "Xenon" front bumper looks as though you have to cut the whole front fascia in half.

then I am looking at the "Rk sport" front lip and it looks like you dont have to do anything to it and it just clips on.

Will somebody shed some light

the xenon kit I believe sticks over the front bumper up to the headlights, the RK kit is literally a splitter you 'bolt' on

Dont you already have the ground effects package, our car in the sig????

Yeah I do have the ground effects kit. However I want a different front fascia. I have seen the xenon kit at shows. I would like to go that direction. The RK sport is sick as hell to. If the rk is just gonna clip into my stock holes I should probably go that way

my only concern with just getting an aftermarket front bumper piece and keeping the rest of the factory ground effects is that it may not match up. It would look kind of silly having the front bumper lower than the rest of the car, you know?

you could prob get away with the rk splitter, may have to drill new holes but underneith, the xenon kit will not match the rs effects you have and the bumper flares out at the bottom as WIspartan says

Looks to me like it matches up fine for that guy, anyway, my question was do I have to cut anything to put the bumper on. I appreciate the style advice but the rest of the xenon kit is gay and its to bendy, and the rk sport kit side skirts are identical to the rs ones. Thanks for the help though, I'll post pics when I get it painted

Ah so it does

I dont know what you have to drill im afraid, but its pretty cool it matches up. I know what you mean about the rest of the kit, its over the top !!

I know bro, don't you think it looks sick? its just like a more agressive version of the stock kit. I do nothing but look at camaros anytime i get a chance and i found that white one on cardomain and got pretty syched learning that the kit will match up

Hey I was wondering how this is project is going that front clip is a sweet addidition to the rs ground effect kit. I likewise would want to look into a more aggressive front bumper.
