Default GT Bumper

I think it may have been posted earlier, but can you swap a GT rear bumper for the V6 one without having to make any other mods?

Yes, except for the center pin that doesn't exist on a V6

Actually that extra pin IS semi-necessary. The center of the GT bumper catches wind at highway speed and starts to vibrate without the center pin (doesn't make any noise, but looks bad). I think the pin runs like 2 bucks, and the hole for it to fit into is already on the V6. Might as well do it right.

Where can I buy the center pin? Is there an official name for it?

Thanks,
Tim
