Front end for 2005 SRT-8

[Joey Altieri]

I have a question about the front bumper assy and bottom spoiler on a 2005 300C SRT-8. I am being told that I can't get the 2 piece front end any longer, but i thought that the 2 piece front end was just a 300C front end with the bottom spoiler piece added on by the SRT division. I don't want a one piece front end i want the 2 piece original front. If I could get some clarification on this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for any help you could give me,

nope tha 05 and some 06 SRT had a 2 piece fascia front and rear . Now they all have a one piece unit .

I know but the dealer is telling me that the 2 piece isn't available and i have to settle for a one piece. I thought that the 2 piece consisted of a standard 300c bumper cover with an additional spoiler added on the srt model. is that correct?

thats right, but you might as well be lookin for the dodo bird. theyre pretty much extinct.

The two piece is not available anymore they do not make it. Unless some one in the after market makes it you got to go with the one piece. I do not know if the new one is a direct bolt on or not. But I do know if you put the SRT fascia on a 300C. You got to replace the belly pan and the wheel splash guards.

The bottom spoiler piece is available and the front piece from a 300c is available doesn't this make a 2 piece front end same as orig.? That , I think, is what srt did in 2005 and early 2006. Then they switched to the 1 piece in mid 2006

The reason you have to replace that stuff is because the srt front end has brake cooling vents and it just hangs lower, Belly pan is shaped different in order to match up to the new lower fascia

I saw a dodo bird just the other day, but I’ve not seen the two piece bumper for a SRT8 (except my own) They're very rare indeed.

Yes, the 2005/2006 (most of 06 anyways) is a 2 piece design. The C bumper with the added on chin spoiler. Problem is they don't make the chin spoiler any more and they are EXTREMELY rare and hard to find.

So basically the dealer is right, you have to get the one piece.
