Default Re: RS Conversion..

A lot of work to do the change over an RS Tom. Keep in mind not only an extensive makeover on the front end but the back end of an RS has the backup lights mounted within the lower valence panel. Ofcourse they make templates for this but you may be be running a different wiring harness and such. And don't forget new RS tail light lenses. HBC sells a front end '69 Camaro conversion kit for about $850 and that doesn't get you the grill and necessary hardware...by the way HBC has a pair of GM NOS RS fenders for a '69 and the whopping price of $4500. Think it over Tom--a lot goes into changing over. Much easier finding a true RS and starting from there. Hope this helps!
