Default Clean quick release method for f-body front bumpers?
Anyone have a clean quick release method for our front bumpers? (specifically the 98-02 t/a) Trying to find something that doesn't involve these rubber bands.

Can you post a few pictures of where you mounted them whoever you decide to start the project?

Check out the aircraft latches on Wicks or Aircraft Spruce and specialties web pages,,
Lots of flush options..
Demon Tweeps out of England sells a lot of special latches for formula cars and such..

Good luck!
