mitchntx1548534714 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 From the 2005 CMC rules 8.5.1. Fenders must be OEM stock or an OEM replacement. Am I to assume this refers to bumper covers as well? Was this the "intent" of this rule? There are a lot of aftermarket bumper covers out there for Mustangs, Camaros and Firebirds that target asphalt racing. For example ... http://www.pitstopusa.com/detail.aspx?ID=14179 http://www.pitstopusa.com/detail.aspx?ID=14173 These are OEM replicas that are SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than OEM replacements, even through auto salvage facilities. Would these be acceptable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsim Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 OEM = GM Built and\or supplied - as in what the dealer would put on your car if it was broke, and needed replacement. OEM replacement = Similar to OEM as in dimensions/materials/etc, but manufactered in Taiwan. Basically, if you can get a part for your car at the dealer or a salvage yard, or a replacement manufacturer, that's what you need. Circle track body parts (which are generally shells of plastic with nothing behind them) would be a no-no. The reasoning is that this is a 'stock' class - as in what was delivered from the showroom floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll ask no more questions ... promise Mitch - you are no more of a troublemaker than the rest of us ( me? ). Seriously, your questions are aren't trouble at all - AAMOF, they are very helpful to those who may have the same question, but just haven't asked it yet. Please, don't stop asking.
