hey starting next weekend im modding my front end. i have a stock rs bumper and im going to modd it this up comming weekend. here is what it will look like...<p><p><p>
what do u all think?

looks good. wat are u doin? are u just cutting the top beam thing of the small grill off the stock bumper

should look good bro keep us posted on the progress

It has already been done. I did it like 2 years ago. I must tell you it wont be as easy as it looks. For one the bar you are cutting is hollow. so when it is cut you are going to be left with two holes one on each end, in order for it to look right the holes would have to be filled. that will be another project but in any event they will have to be filled.once filled right it would have to be primed, and then painted.finaly you add a mesh grill behind it. Now I have seen some people cut all the way up to the front of were the hole starts to eliminate it, but I have found that it is way to close to the front of the bumper. but I guess that is just a matter of oppinion. here is a pic of mine.<p>

yes i am cutting the small opening larger and the cross bars in the mouth out. i am planning to also fill the front plate holes that r also on my front bumper. soi am going to be starting on my small grille shortly. i will keep u all posted on my progress w/ this.

perry from moca did that and it looks nice

He's also cutting the top smaller hole which i don't think anyone has done. Looks good hope it works out good.

I cut the bar in the bumper also, looks good.

never- what up with the "knight Rider" Light

what ya mean that is exactly what it is.But that pic is horrible does no justice for the car at all.Anyway it is hooked up to my alarm along with washer led's red also.If you don't like sorry, but I get maaaaad props for it around here. well I did till I sold my car a few weeks ago looking to get a GS now.But when i do the same setup will be on it.

I don't think cutting the top bar of the bumper cover is possible because that is where the hardware which holds on the bumper cover is located. There are 4 bolts attached to that top bar which basically hold the bumper on to the car and I think if you cut it off - you'd have trouble.... <p>Let us know how it goes!

yes i have knoticed the bars that r coected to that part of the bumper... however im going to build custom brakets to adjust for the open upper grill. i will keep u all posted. on my progress. i will be photo documenting it as well, like i have done w/ all my prodjects.

Never- Its cool. I never seen it on a Mx-3. did you have any problem with cops?

NEVER ENUFF CUSTOMS: I like it too, I've been wanting something like that but can't seem to find it anywhere? Can you give me an idea?
BTW I've got the RED LED Washers too, what a pain in the A@# those were to install. I ended up just taking off the dang hood.
