right im posting on behalf of my brother.
he's been thinking about cutting the slats out of it. (you know what ones i mean) so it turns in to like a big mouth style.

are there any guides any where about how to do it? we dont just want to hack away at it untill were sure how to do it properly (dont want to ruin the bumper)

cheers, lew

Jigsawed mine out. Tell him to take his time and that he'll need fillers, fibreglass, an old number plate (for patching if he's doing a big wide mouth) lots of patience and some money for fags and beer cuz its such a b!tch of a job he'll need them!! :wink:

If your talking about the design Im thinking of, Then wouldnt it be cheaper & easier to try & find a used Novadose front bumper?
