Default BORED TODAY SO ADDED BUMPER VENTS

Had a bit of time today so had a play about with the bumper Ive not added this to My front mount project thread ill do that when it comes to cutting the bumper for the front mount

Ive had a couple of 3Dr cossie bonnet vents kicking about and come up with the idea of putting some side vents in the front bumper, I had to cut these down and plastic weld them back together (you could say cut and shut)
as these would of been to large have added some pics to see what you think



STILL WAITING FOR FRONT MOUNT SHOULDNT BE LONG NOW AND ILL FINISH THE MAIN PROJECT THREAD THANKS TO ALL FOR THE COMMENTS

Dont know if i like the overall look the bumper has now but im impressed with what you've done. The nice square lines of the 3 door vent really suit the look required for the side vents.

Looks like a neat and tidy install, should work well if you have an inner wing mounted intake.

Well done .. im impressed
