I didn't order the grills, yet.

That's going to look good.

IMO leave the grilles out

That's going to be sweet! you're going to have a pretty good SS clone by the time you get the engine swap done

The S.S. SS cover arrived this morn, I just dropped it off at the painters house. All I have for supplied mounting hardware is 4 sheet metal screws and 6 pop rivits. No 3M tape. The instructions leave alot to be desired, but I'm sure they assume people will figure it out. so where exactly do the screws & rivits go?

This is the 2003 SS on the used car lot next door to my work. Do I screw mount the Street Scene cover in the same area (but higher into the bumper) as the OE bumper cover?

Im assuming its an overlay on your existing bumper?

Yes, but I need to remove the lower valance

Hard to tell until you get the factory piece off first, then I would think it would be a matter of lining holes up, drilling and screw/riveting

I just got back from the painters house. He's got it all done, just letting the paint cure a bit. We'll have the cover on tomorrow afternoon.

[bespurcell]

Wow! That looks good!

[Mikz86TA]

Nice =)

[boxcarracer963]

Awesome, r u gonna get the grill peice for it?

[em98ss]

I think that style of bumper cover looks excellent on the Colorado, than the S10, on the S10 it just dosen't flow with the lines.
But this looks very GOOD!!!

[04silveradomykk]

Thanks everyone, I have some cover alignment issues to be resolved soon. I don't know what I'll do about the open mouth. I'm not feeling the street scene grill for the cover... I might make something different
