What's your favorite front end for a 69 Camaro (SS style vs RS)?
Hey all, I just bought this SS from "too fun" who is a member here at pro-touring. It is currently in SS style, but I'm thinking about going RS on the front end. Which one do you prefer? A). Standard SS B). Standard RS or C). RS with endura front bumper.
(Also, if anyone knows a solid mechanic in L.A. who does house calls, please drop me a line.)
Thanks,
Patrick

I'm going to go against the grain here and go with A
But I guess you don't see a 69 here often, so if you do any front end is a treat

I like A. Mainly for looks, but also because there will come a day when the mechanism for the hidden lights will fail.

If you go c, get rid of the rocker moulding and paint the rear bumper to match.

Well Patrick... you KNOW my answer!! LOL. But I know how much you like the RS front end so I would go with B... Only because you have alot of chrome on that car already, wheels, trim, back bumper. Also with the WHITE hockey stripe I think leaving the chrome in the grill of the RS and around the car would compliment it so much better. Unless you want to get rid of the white hockey stripe, get a set of 18 inch wheels in MATTE BLACK then I would go with option C.. Like I told you when you bought the car, this hobby is addictive!! The car hasnt even arrived yet and your already looking to make the changes!! LOL!
