Default 06 lt bumper question

Hello fellow monte owners,
I've got an 06 lt and am looking for a new bumper, but having trouble. I'm considering getting an ss bumper or impala bumper, but want to make sure that they will fit. Any help?

The only reason I would get the impala bumper is for the price, but I think I found an ss bumper for 300 so I'm going to go with that now that I know it's interchangable. Much appreciated

You can get a brand new bumper for around $65. I know because I swapped the whole front end of my car for the Impala SS style.

Also, if I'm just getting the impala bumper cover will the switch still be simple?

The only problems that you would have with this type of swap are the fog lights, the silver front ground effects (Impalas don't come with this), the body lines around the wheels and the fender well liners. None of these obstacles are unmanageable. Good luck and shop around before you decide to spend $300 on a bumper that doesn't quite snap in. I needed the larger opening that the Impala comes with to get more air flow across my inter-cooler. Thank you for the compliment.
