with the weather being hot the car temp had been rising so i thought id set about helping it get some cold air...
1st was to cut out the front gril as it was verry restritive


i took the bumper off and found that majority of the radiator was being blocked with the crossmember so removed

then was to tackle/remove the number plate recess and part of the lower grill


iv already removed the inner arch but decided ti cut a few holes to help with abit more air flow to the filter aswell

then was a case of bolt back on and remove the air horns and give a quick coat of bumper black rinished article...




few random pics of the engine and tape over lights for that track look

Why dont you just change the fan switch and see why its geting hot rather than change a bumper and butcher it?

the fan does come on and i also have a constant switch i use...but the crossmember/crash bar is always going to restrict air when moving and the bumper on it are ten a penny so just had a play as im soucing a gsi one for day to day use and the "butchered" one for track time
