dont like or dislike... was just wondering why? but now it makes senseif there will be no bumper... better to break the front a bit.

I wanted to make the nose completely flat,but the panelbeater said that,that is where the 2 panels join,and it can cause a problem if you cut it away.
Now I'm happy he didn't.
