great discussion. thanks. do you have any other photos and tips on removing the front bumper cover, or does the description in shop manual pretty much cover everything?

Wow. That GT2 front radiator is quite a bit bigger, couple that with the increased airflow from the nose and I bet it is functionally superior.

Really shows how much different a GT2 really is.

I replaced my passenger side radiator and when the front bumper came off...it was like a forest fell out of my car I had so many leaves in there.

the RSR bumper was a "poser" set up and you could not really run the ducts and radiators the way the Cup car runs so I went with the GT@ real deal, then I can be more like you

Can you use compressed air instead of a pressure washer?

Did I see someone used little nerf bars in place of the rear bumper after it was removed, if so, where do you get them?

BTW Tom, can't wait to hear your impressions after this mod is done.

Tom are you going to run fiberglass or carbon Fenders / Doors now as well ? I'm sure there is quite a bit of weight to be saved in these areas as well.

I bought 4 foot by 8 foot sheet of screening at OSH for $5.00. I did my own install it was on my 04 C2. Here are a few photos. Just need some tin snips and small self tapping screws.

I found a freakin black widow living in my front end! So be careful sticking your hand in there.
