That looks hot! Do it cal! DO IIIITTT!

 

[aaronw]

the numberplate holder was on when i got it,it was one of the importers pics that one.
the bracket would be a doddle to make or like said get a bike rear plate holder

 

[CaL]

thing is though! would i be the only silver gt to do it?as mikes gt looks raw and track slag hardcore lol.....plus its black so that helps!!mines fuckin silver with red noddy wheels ffs lol!....i wish there was someone who could to a shop for me

 

[ryan-11]

[aaronw]

you should try how mine is cut out 1st and if you want more then cut the remaining,..you may regret it!

 

[Guye]

It took me a little while, but cutting the bumper made perfect sense as far as airflow goes...plus it looks good.

thants what il do!....but im scared of fucking it up....its the face of my beast! and i dont want to make it uglier.....plus i like the sleeperness....i dont know....im on 2 minds....cheers for help though guys

 

[aaronw]

then move the plate and just leave it a sleeper. would still look good!

 

[CaL]

i dont know what to do!!

i was looking just and im not sure!!im affraid of doing it and it looking shite....atm i think its alright but could do with a smaller plate as said....and ive removed the gt badge,i think imo it gives it a better look??

 

[Monty]

I have cut mine, but i managed to find a Mk1 bumper i thought it looked slightly better, that is just my opinion though

Where can i get a MK1 bumper? I take it the MK1 bumper is a pre 92 model?

 

[Monkfish]

i dont know what to do!!

Do it like mine, relocate the number plate to the side and cut the bumper between the two small verticles that can be seen either side of the IC...

As your car is silver, don't put mesh in there. You could put silver mesh, but you run the risk of it looking tacky.

You also might want to adjust your FMIC slightly so it's actually central too
