Hi everyone. I've been lurking the forums as a guest for some time now so I figured I would register and contribute whatever I have as well as find the answers to all my questions here. I drive a 2001 Monte SS (A friend told me it is supercharged, but I could have sworn I never saw one). When I got it I had a cylinder misfire problem, saw the posts here and elsewhere about replacing coil packs, I did that and cleaned the spark plugs. Still the same problem, and after some more troubleshooting I found I had a clogged Catalytic Converter (strange because I live in MA and that shouldn't have passed emissions test). Anyway, a heads up to anyone that might have that problem too because it also caused an exhaust leak. But with the exhaust leak gives me a more acceptable reason to delete the resonator and U-bend and put in new pipes and mufflers rather than adding a little horsepower and for the sound.

My first question is a few weeks ago I went to work, and when the day ended and I came back there was a nice hole in my rear bumper from somebody who hit it and left no information. Anyway, I've been looking at the Razzi ground effects package for awhile and like it. Does that package replace that bumper or does it just attach to the bottom of it?

Thanks in advance!

I need to get my hands on a camera, a picture would be the best way to show. The hole is the entire height of the bumper, but on the passenger side and about 6 inches or more long. It is kind of rough... But I think I'll be hitting up a local junkyard to find a bumper then saving up a little extra money for the ground effects kit. Thank you Space!

 

Welcome to the site.


I'm pretty sure that the kits just attach to the bottom, they might cover the very bottom edge, but with a hole that big it sounds like you'll be needing a new bumper. Are you going to be able to get insurance to cover it?

 

Welcome to the site!

 

I'm not sure. The insurance I have is great so I will ask them (I previously owned a 2001 Grand AM GT and it got totaled, so I got the retail value of the car back, with that money I bought this car). Chances are I won't have any luck considering the damage has no proof of anyone doing it, though it definitely wasn't me. But I'll definitely check it out.

Thank you for welcoming me by the way!

Welcome to the site!

 

Those sites are looking good! One thing I didn't see is are those bumper covers prepainted or do I need to do it myself or bring it to a shop?
