RC Bumper Conversion / Tricky
Bolts
continued.
. .

Like
mentioned before these bolts can be tricky to remove. You'll
have to find creative ways that work for you. I bent the piece
you see in the image up and over to get something for the
nut at the bottom to turn against.

Once
this nut is removed from its bolt you can unscrew the bolt.
At
this point repeat the steps you took to remove the nut and
bolt to the remaining one on the other side. Now simply pull
out the crashbar and you'll have and put in your new crashbar.

You
will notice that the RC crashbar does seem a bit weaker than
the heavy stock crashbar. It probably is and will most likely
not offer the same protection the stock crashbar would in
a front end accident. Keep this in mind while speeding and
bumper to bumper traffic. A simple 30 mph fender bender could
cost you the entire car.

This
crashbar does weight significantly less than the stock crashbar.
The bumper weights less as well making this not only for a
good aesthetic modification but for a good weight reduction
modification as well.
