    Bumper delete? Is anybody sporting this

    Thinking of pulling my bumper and running without one
    on the front, has anybody been able to pull this off and make it look good?

    :p

      I agree with this guy ^.

      I never liked it, never will like it, and if function is over form for you, then you'll keep that front bumper.

        I don't believe it's legal to rock it bumperless either...

            If I can ever afford to buy a second e30 for a track rat I'm going to go bumperless and fab up some fancy sheet metal valances so there's no weird holes or anything showing. I love the 2002/510 look.

                      i bought it from the PO like this.
                      looks okay from some angles, but the rest of the times it looks like shit.
                      stick with bumpers haha.

                        The front looks like shit, the backs semi oky. I don't have my rear bumper on right now.

                          I like the rear of this car, but I'm still trying to come up with a design that will flow better on the front.

                            BMW came up with a pretty good design for the front end in 1989...
