They will work, but you have to cut up the cab corners to fit a rc, and mold them to look original.

Looks kinda fun to do. It looks like the SS front and rear bumper wont be terribly notice able so ill probably put them on first and work on collecting the skirts over the winter. My cousins the body and paint guy so Im gonna have to show him this and im sure we'll figure it out come next spring.

It's this kind of thing that makes me glad I didn't buy an SS.
