Hi all, I'm doing body work for my LS conversion. I have been searching for a bumper that looks good but also will flow proper air to the radiator. I'm not 100% sold on the looks of the 916GT bumper, but I know that by using one, I'll have plenty of air flow.
If I do choose this bumper, I'm not sure to fill in all the gaps or leave it as a bolt on bumper. I have seen a few pictures with this bumper as a bolt on configuration but not many pictures with no body gaps. Has anyone done this conversion and happen to have pictures of the gaps bondo'ed smooth? |

AIR and some of the others have bumper and spoiler options beyond GT and 916. I've been looking for something to replace my cut out LE spoiler.
