That is the plan....I have not re wired it yet, it is the Locar 6.5 in oval LED. I also want to integrate the Hagan LED side lights into the turn signal circuit.
I have sort of hit a motivational wall...hopefully I will get stoked to work after I get the engine and tranny in this weekend.

I really like the split bumper look in the front also. Any chance they can be split?

These bumpers are stainless so they can be cut and polished.

They are stainless steel so if someone had the skill I am sure that they could be sectioned the trick would be reshaping the cut ends!

Re: Stainless steel bumper conversion
The other trick would be supporting the loose end so it did not vibrate too badly or bend if someone even leaned against them or say put their foot on them to tighten up their shoe laces. I have see a number of section jobs that after a few drives end up looking like misshapen airplane propellers due to lack of proper support.Ptoneill wrote:They are stainless steel so if someone had the skill I am sure that they could be sectioned the trick would be reshaping the cut ends!

Very true, the split rear bumpers do have support brackets on them that secure the bumpers to the rear quarter panels. The front bumper comes with brackets for securing the ends to the front quarter panels I wouldn't think it would be to hard for someone to come up with supports for the center.
