What to do after removing front bumper support? Ok so I started to put the car on a diet this weekend. Took out the front bumper support, EGR stuff, A/C, Cruise, etc... My question is what do you guys do after you take out the bumper support as far as not making it a big wind ordeal with those open front parts? Looks to me like wind will get caught up in those front subframe portions etc... Maybe I'm just over analyzing the situation. Anyone cut off the bracketry that holds on the bumper support btw (pictures please).

Some people just box off the bumper supports after they are cut off, I didn't bother and without the front bumper I have never had any problems, is you plan to go pretty fast you can make some bracing out of small tubing to keep the front nose from pushing in at high speeds.

Get a 4 ft piece of 2x2-1/8 inch aluminum angle and bolt it to the frame horns,then you can put a couple of screws from the underside of the bumper cover attatched to the aluminum.the part that use to bolt to the support,helps stiffen it up a bunch and only weighs hardly nothing.Sorry no pics.
