I'm wanting to remove my gsi bumper after every rally and currently on bolts each side (by the arch) is there any easier / quicker / tidier way of doing this? Just wanting to whip off for cleaning every event and putting back on.

Cheers in advance

I don't have pics handy but the mk2 one I have (but dont use) has holes where bits go into the chasis legs at the front and bonnet pins, much like the pic on the front of marcels car above

Dzus fasteners look ideal for the sides. Then aerocatches/bonnet pins/more dzus on the front

Also found an old quote on maybe how to do it:


remove bumper completly with the breaker bar turn it round and where the arms go on to the bar use the holes to drill the bumper wholla!!! simple
edit: you then lose the bar just keeping the arms for the pins to go on
