I personally think a painted Tiger-woman is due on the hood if you really want a high performance mod.

I know I have that pic somewhere...

Drill the shocks out. You will want a drill press - a hand drill just won't cut it. Maximum size for the hole is supposed to be 2mm (I think this has something to do with the amount of pressure insid the shock).

Yes drill the back of the shoocks then you can compress them by hand, beware of the blue oil lol. That should fix your problem. As for the rear bumper implosion mod..... i just fixed that one after being rearended by a GMC truck......I decided that I did'nt like the way it looked anymore. If u have anymore questions u can pm me or post here if u did'nt already do it. Almost forgot you can probably catch me on AIM or Yahoo too

Isn't it amazing how many people are willing to help you with mods these days? I think that is so nice.

Hey, I have a Q about the bumper shock mod.

If you completely compress the shock until it stops, do you still have enough room to bolt the bumper on? And also, how "flush" will the bumper end up being...is it possible to go too far, or will it still stick out a small amount (1/2"?) even if all the way compressed?

oh you will have a b*tch of a time bolting the bumper up, unless you pull off the lower valence.

Just go find a highway with a grass median, then search for an overpass... if you're lucky you'll find one that opens to the road beneath w/out barracades. Drive in the grass and into your snub-nose dream. Enjoy.

You can not go too far in, mine is completley compressed and still sticks out 2". As for getting to the bolts to put the bumper back on, i don't think it will be too much of a problem. I have an aftermarket lower front bumper but mine bolted on no problem.
