Default Just installed the GT/CS front lower fascia...

Oh, hai! I now have the look up front I was looking for now that I have the 2010-2012 BOSS-GT/CS front fascia installed... She looks absolutely amazing. I'll post up a few pics later. I retained the stocker, but I'll be honest... she AIN'T NEVER going back to wearing that...

My question is what to do with the original piece? Would it useful to anyone? For comparison, I've had my 2005-2009 GT grill on Craigslist for months now and the only 3 people who want it are out of state and want it shipped... I have it listed for $10. I'm worried I will have the same lack of interet if I try to sell it and would rather just ditch it if it's going to be the same... Should I just squeeze it into the trash can? What do you folks think?

Maybe try listing it on here? Is it any different from the V6 lower end? Or more importantly would it fit the V6 lower end? If so I guarantee you'd have buyers.

Oh and get on those pics!

Unfortunately, the V6 bumper is different from the GT bumper... The only people who could benefit from this part is someone who damaged their front and are repairing without the benefit of insurance... problem is that the cost of shipping something so physically big would be prohibitive... I'll try your advice and at least list it... maybe someone needs one.

V6

GT

Just because it looks different doesn't mean it won't work on the v6 the 05-09 gts and v6s are interchangable dunno if the 10-12 are but I don't know why they wouldn't be

I believe on the new ones it's just the lower part. Not the whole bumper. If it was like the 05-09's then heck yeah it'd be a quick sale haha.

Yeah, not the whole bumper cover, just the lower matte black area on the GT... I honestly can't see how this would fit on a V6 bumper since they look so different.
If anyone wants it and can come pick up, then they can PM me... It'll be free to a forum member.

Me personally, i'd hold onto it. Stick it in a closet or something. You never know when a cat or dog or something else might run out in front of you. Voila, you already have a replacement.

You know what danman? I think you are right... I have put my OEM GT grille and mufflers up in the attic... just incase...

It's settled. It is going in the attic.

Thanks,
Don
