|
|
Hello All:
Has anyone made or investiagted the possibilty of a like in kind black insert for the front section of the bumper where the license plate is cut out?
I run the risk of a citation because the front end of these cars are too pretty to bugger up with a plate....
However in the USA this is a small inconvience if knicked anyway.
Interested in others ideas. |

Me neither, but if you mean an undisturbed bumper=line try and stick a rear bumper to the front |

I will attempt to explain...the front bumper has a indentation which is fairly deep.
The recess is used to house and land a license plate.
Apparently one can put a rear bumper in place to address this aesthetic problem? However finding spares is a bit difficult.
Judging by the response here...no one has considered an insert to this space.
It visually pains me with such a beautifully chiseled nose... |

I'm not sure a rear bumper will fit...
Try before ordering ! So you'll see if there is any rust ( or many holes ? ) on the front panel, like on many cars...
In any case, rear bumpers are available at AML, but front bumpers are out of stock; so keep yours carefully ! _________________ Welcome to Paradise ! (FRONT 242)

Take the bumpers off. You will find corrosion. My experience. |
