I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

I got the seatbelt thing from a friend who was going to junk his z24 cavalier, don't know if the other models have it..

You mean the GS front lip? I just drilled a few holes on the stock bumper and fastened with nuts and bolts.. if you look closely the at the backside of the bumper there are marks where you should drill.
