Im done with the bodykit look....
Wednesday, February 02, 2011 12:45 PM
Im selling my bodykit and now Im looking for the stock sporty look. However I need some help. 1999 headlights are just smaller than 2002?

I have a 2002 Z24 with 1999 headlights and front bumper. This is the exactly front end Im looking for. Im looking on certifit.com to buy the bumpers but whats the difference between a 2002 base front bumper and a 2002 Z24 bumper? Just a lip? There listing says the Z24 bumper comes WITHOUT the extension.



GMR has got nothing on this

First that's not a stock front bumper. The lip is the bottom of the IF front bumper, it's custom made.

To the best of my knowledge the base model is no lip and no fogs, 02 Z bumper has fogs and the lip is an option.

I found a bumper with fogs and a lip for my old Z on car-part.com.

This. And the lip was only available on '02 models and was tagged as an ls sport. And car-part.com is a great place to look, I often see some of the more sought after lips and skirts on there for reasonable prices.

Im aware of that stock bumper with IF lip. Im new to jbodies so what my question is since I have a 2002 with 1999 headlights....what will I need to do to go back to stock with that look posted. Bascially Im confused about the headlights. As far as what I was told is they 99's are smaller and are 2 bulbs.

What you will need is a set of 2000-02 headlight brackets, headlights and side markers. I reccomend pershingautobodyparts03. I just ordered a 2000-02 Z24 bumper for 59.66 plus free shipping. I purchased it on the evening of Jan 26 and it was at my doorstep on Jan 31 affternoon. I also bought signal markers for 14.16 also free shipping.

You'll also need to rewire to a 9007 headlight bulb. Good luck.

You lucky bastard. Car-Part comes up with nothing in all of New England. And I cant seem to find a set of lips on ebay or the internet. This is kind of annoying. I did find that there's someone selling homedepot lip kits on ebay now.

Have you tried searching for complete front lss bumpers instead of just lips? I did search in my area (PA) and found 2 lss fronts w/lips for less than $100. I'm sure if you call around to the yards that have complete bumpers, someone may be willing to sell just the lips.

Okay I need some suggestions on what sides to go with that front end. As far as rear Im thinking of a 03-05 LS rear bumper.
