Tools to cut bumper frame off (Intercooled People)

[Bob Padilla]

You're also going to want to use a sawzall or a die grinder, for cutting the support. A dremel will take a year of sundays lol.

^ This.

I'm not lowered,almost tore the fmhe and my front end off backing out of my friends driveway.

So we cut the bumper support on mine.

When looking at the cut supports and thinking about it. How much airflow are you getting behind the plastic cover?

bill cutting the bumper allows you to put the front air dim back on which will direct the air right into it.

mine hung done over an inch below the bumper and it looked awful. the first driveway i pulled in it just touched and bent it the slightest bit.

that zzp one in the last pic looks smaller. you should definitely cut the bumper bar and raise up the fmhe if it hangs below the bumper.

Plasma cutter??

I know not everyone has a plasma cutter but takes about 1 min with one though.

Do not use a dremal, you will be there for ever. Sawzall will work, but will go through a couple of blades, but it will work. Those bumbers are semi hardened, so it will chew up blades.

What ever you use, be safe and wear some type of eye protection.

I took it to my friend who works at toyota and he used a die grinder. took no time at all.
