Tam made a Mopar lip fit on the 00-02 style bumper. Takes a little work but looked pretty good.

What's wrong with the srt bumper? Is it the SrtD or Srt4 bumper?

Nothing is wrong with it persay,it won't work with the 00-02 euro tails I have.

That was the plan,bodyshop said it's a no go cause of the material the bumper is made out of. Said if it wa a fiberglass bumper they could build/mold off it. They're not sure if the fiberglass would stick to the material as the stock bumper is made to flex and well fiberglass doesn't flex. I wanna rock the euro tails more then the srt bumper.

After lookin at Tam's car,I'm gonna go with the mopar lip on the stock bumper.

aparently your body shop lacks some skill, there is an epoxy 3m makes that allows you to cut and mold our bumpers however you see fit, and its strong as shit, sandable etc...

cant believe they wanted to fiberglass it

what a joke...

Fiberglass? I was pretty sure we didnt have Vettes.

Call some other shops, if you have any more to look into.

I believe there was two members who made the SRT bumper work with Euro tails.

I think Juan was one... Whats his screen name though lol??

Wow...I need to learn to use the search box better or something. I use it but never saw that tread. Thank you!!

Does anyone know what the 3m epoxy is called? I have a spare 00' bumper I could try to cut n shape for practice and see if I can do it myself.

You could do a xenon rear lip.

They also have a product with the same concept, but for fiberglass/rigid materials.
