    Tucking bumpers

    i was reading in the "tech" section that you can tuck your bumpers in on the early style bumpers. this looks fairly easy and i am thinking about doing it but i dont know what it looks like when it is done. does anybody have any pics of what they look like when they are done? thanks.

    The front one looks pretty decent when it's tucked, but the rear one doesn't look so hot. There are gaps on the side between the moulding and the bumper.

      I tucked mine and I love the way the front and back look but mostly the front because of the way it looks with the es front lip. I'm sorry I don't have pictures, I would if someone had not have stolen my camera.

                Drill holes in the shocks, drain them, drive into a wall.

                  He wasn't asking how to do it, he was asking what it looked like.

                  There's a little more to it than that, I want to see your car after you do it that way.

                      Well ofcourse its more complicated, but thats the gist of it. Guess i need to read the first post more clearly.

                        Yes, someone who shall remain nameless did tell me they were offended by it. That's as far into it as I'm going.
