i think taking the bumpers off is ridiculous. if you look at the other guys post, of his homemade rear bumper thinger, if someone rearends him, the front bumper or nose of the other car should have no trouble touching the gas tank
i think its a bad idea.. and a safety hazard. if anything, take the steel bumper off, and mounts, but replace it with at lease someone, foam, aluminum..
and ya, the sarcastic comments are just plain stupid. if your gunna psot something sarcastic about a REAL question, then just dont post at all. you make yourself look like an a$$, since everyone else is being helpful, and ur just wasting space
plus if your going to drag it, wouldn't the rear bumper put added weight ont he rear, for better traction?
