Oh man. I didn't realize that you were installing it with a ZL1 bumper conversion. I test fit these on Zl1 bumpers and there were some clearance issues. You will have to make your own judgement call, but the person who test fit one for me, would have had to cut into the lower grille. Up to you but you may end up having to resell it, or dig into the grille.

I'm not worried about it, but thanks for the info! I have someone else interested that I know that also has an SS with the normal front end. If it's an issue I will just sell it to them, no biggie! I should have mentioned that first, so that's all on me.
Thanks man!

THANKS AGAIN! For putting these together for us. My guess is the rear crash bar is out of the question. shame!

Was one ever test fit or mocked up where I could get RSM to cut one for me?

They told me that they have the mesaurements already in house for a parachute mount that they were working on. The problem is because I was a first time vendor, they railroaded me on the price per unit. You have to buy $5k per year to be a vendor, so they basically cahrged me to get the price into the $5k mark. I was considering reaching out on the rear bar project, but it they are going to charge me $206 per unit plus freight, I won't be able to pull it off.

I just spoke to Joey at RSM... They don't seem to be interested in making the rear bar, or making more of the front bars. I got a "Our production schedule is full and we have no plans of working on these projects at the moment" response. So looks like this might have been a "one and done" product. I wonder if someone like send cut send could build these for me at a reasonable price point, then I could just pay someone to weld them up for me.

by some chance is there 1 laying around still that was returned or not sold? I have an event coming up that requires a tow hook and can seem to find where to place mine? This would solve my problem perfectly!
