im thinking bout removing the bumper support on my 2002 camaro will it make the front real loose without the support in place?

 

Yes and at low speeds it will buckle. There are bumper supports available from sponsors that prevent/reduce the buckling and sagging.

 

I removed mine and havent had any problems since. But mine hasnt been out to long and it is temp till I get a bumper support from MWC. I also dont drive my car on the street for the most part, only to the track and work once a month.

 

I've had mine out for about 2 years and have never had a issue

 

Do you have an aftermarket one or nothing at all?

 

I don't have anything at all. I just started to strip my car down for my new build, I plan on making my own little brackets for it eventually. You will be fine without it

 

Check our site for information on supports.

 

I would at lest have some kind of support in there. Iv searched alot on this and your nose will sag over time without some kind of support.

 

Hole saw.

 

YEs it will be a little loose. dont hit anything or lean on it and it will be fine drove mine for years like that. eventually ade a small support out of pencil crome moley.

 

I ran nothing with all the lower plastics hanging off it, and the full airdamn across. It worked for 2-3 years. I just cut that lower flap off the nose that just flaps there, took all the plastics off, drimmed the airdamn to just the middle bolls wide. So removed like 7-10#s of crap plastics hangging off the bumper so it dosnt sag anymore, was starting to pull on the tabs under the headlights. I put 4 little 1/8 x1 alum bars to the lower bumper holes and its firm now.

 

pics^^^^?

I think some of you guys would be surprised what the nose of your car looks like at 100mph without any sort of support in there. I'm sure it's fine just cruising around, but if you can push on it with your foot and it moves/buckles, then it is doing that when you are going down the track.

 

This!!

 

my husband made aluminum brackets for a couple of our cars and they are fine

 

This was pretty simple..I just used some alm strips from the local hardware store. I also made a bracket for my fog lights..lol its not too pretty but works!

 

x3 on the holesaw...if you do a good job laying it out it looks cool and nobody is non the wiser...here's mine

 

Damn how did you do them so clean?? I have a hole saw kit..but damn!!

 

I worked on professional RR cars for 17 years....ya learn some tricks along the way. It's nothing you can't do with a hole saw kit, a diegrinder and a tape measure to lay it all out. Take your time and yours could look like that too. Here's a pic of the hood hinges. You would be suprised at how much weight you can shed from all over the car.
