stingjay Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 hi i'm trying to test fit a veilside front bumper i got secondhand. the trouble is the metal bar across the front seems to stop it going on does this have to come off as well, or does this take the impact in a crash cheers j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlT67 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 I believe that is the front impact bar, most after market bumpers require these to be removed before the bumper will fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickTT Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 You should not remove that front crossmember as it provides structural support for the chassis. Mine is still in place and i've got a genuine veilside front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
