help cutting down crash bar - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #19672 8 posts Started by ScoobyDooCruiser
Hey,
I just picked up the gt-4 hood/bumper combo and I need to trim down the crash bar in my car so that it will fit under the new bumper. Does anyone know what I have to do for this? How much I have to cut it down, what I have to do, etc.

If you could help, post, pm, or email me.

Thanks in advance!

you basicly need to cut your crash bar in half, length wise. if you have the bumper, take your crash bar, and place it against the back of the bumper, you'll see how its "supossed" to if in, and that will tell you exactly what you need to cut off
lagos had it done for his conversion, i have a pic of it somewhere..im sure he'll post soon with a pic of what im talking about.

Is it that silver one on mine...or should I say the remains of the silver one? I guess GTs are different than STs, huh?
