dunno where exactly i should post this but im in need of a tubular front bumper support for the sole purpose of reinforcing my front muper so it doesnt sag or collapse under high speed winds... i want to remove my factory support to cut some weight but mainly make room for an intercooler.

Here is one that me and my two buddies made for my car. We made some extra to sale also. Here is the link.https://ls1tech.com/forums/drag-raci...r-support.html It weighs around 9lbs and is made out of chrome moly.

I know a couple guys from the KC area made their own and they were really lightweight. Jerry goes by wlsmoku and has a purple 98 Z with a cowl hood.

bought an burkhart front bumper support and it works and looks perfect! cleared A LOT of room in front to eventually fit a front mount and i think it looks a lot nicer now. prob just 5-10lbs lighter than the stock unit with styrofoam
