I checked VPRPWRDS thread and VENOMOUS1 sticky and I didn't see any #'s on how much weight we can lose out of the front bumper? If anyone has solid #'s on how much they lost, please chime in! Also, has anyone made aluminum brackets to replace steel?

Stay tuned, front bumper removal is on the list and will be done before the next time I hit the track.

Think about 150 front and 75 rear? Seems close. I forgot to put weights down prior to scrapping metal, lol

Any chance you're going to take pics of that adventure?
Did you replace what you took out with any lighter supports?

Yeah but gonna change them as I don't like the support of plastic cover. Looking to change it soon as it annoys me each time I wash it
Absolutely! Once we get a little warmer weather here in PA I will start on it.

Front bumper alone is 70 lbs.
I hope to remove at least half of that.

Should be able to remove close to 50, the bumper needs very little support to hold its shape.

JMB cut a ton of weight out of Dom's truck in the bumper support areas. Check out Dom's build thread for pictures. Last I heard, the Justin still had a set of the new supports for sale.
