I've thought about cutting my front bumper like that, but didn't think it'd be worth the effort for an N/A car.

Yup. I LOVE that car. I think his website is like his plate 18to1.com. Something like that. If you do some searching, you can find the build thread for the car. If I recall, he did a good amount of work to make that car a GNX clone. Especially in the rear tail light section.

But for now...here are his two popular vids.

That thing is nasty.

Good job OP on the build! That is friggin cool! And i bet you get some crazy stares from people in traffic and on the highway. That would be my favorite part!

Bad ***. I always kinda wondered if someone would do that.

Now see if you can fab up a 14 bolt rear end for it!
