Just run a search on it,
there is plenty of threads about this topic, I see some guys over at silveradoss.com, that have done it with regular silverados, go there if you want to go further with the search. Im sure you'll find some good info and part #'s.

Later,
Jesse

Easy isntall, just remove the lower valance and bolt on the bumpercover on top of the bumper pad and bumper. If you order it from stylinconcepts is should have similiar directions.

Chevy Man, is that an aftermarket bumper or a factory SS bumpper. It is my understanding that the factory SS bumper is just a cover as well. Anyone know for sure. Chevy Man, thanks for your help.

Yes, the stock SS Silverado is also a bumper cover! You can order one from gmpartsdirect.com. You can get in their stock colors already painted.

This might be a stupid question but what the hell. I wrecked my truck on the front end going maybe 10 miles an hour. It dented the front bumper a little bit and bent the brackets. Do you guys think it would be okay using the damaged bumper since this just covers it? Or should I just order a new one as well. Thanks, Kaley

Mine is a Street Scene Cover. I like it better b/c the ducts are formed into the bumper and not separate, alot of the SS's have had a few problems w/ the ducts breaking or coming due to whatever reason. Depending the where the dent is. If you use the Street Scenes bumper, it will more than likely work. It fastens w/ 4 screws, 2 on each side where the cover is in the wheel well area. And supplied 3M tape. I also use somver very strong silicone, that thing isnt coming off w/out some kind of damage to the cover. It hasnt pulled up anywhere yet...so..
