Any one know how to take off this kit??

Does anyone know how to remove this body kit, just by looking at this pic. this car is for sale an i don't like the body kit. I was wondering how hard it would be, and also what it would look like. would i have to put an original bumper thing under the bumper in place of the front body kit?
If you even get what im sayin an can shine any light on what im asking that would be great.
I just prefer the original look of the first gen.

Damn thats a good looking SA, I am positive you will need a SA front bumber. the only thing I'm not positive on is what kind of brackets you would need, the body kit might use some after market brackets that won't support the OEM bumper.

Good luck.

I don't think I've ever seen a car from aus/new zeland that wasn't 10 times as bad *** as anything I've seen in the states.

How come people with sweetly modded cars want to return them to original...and people with original cars want to mod them?

Grass is always greener on the other side? Human nature? Too much money to spend? Just because? The challenge?

PS. I like the car "as is".

If that car wasn't all the way in New Zealand then I would be asking how much he wanted for the bumper.

Also after seeing that I am considering taking off the rear bumper, it looked good.

Hahaha. I highly doubt that rear bumper comes off... Looks like its the lack of a rear bumper with a new piece welded or fibreglassed in. Definatley a slick ride tho!

That is a sexy SA. I'm going to roll pan the rear just like that, except I'm going to recess my bumper so I still have it as opposed to just removing it. I say get it as is cause that's sexy

damn that rear bumper looks as good as any rx ive ever seen, although the front bumper looks a little like a snow plow. but the combination of the SA tail-lights and bumper is beautiful. I've ALWAYS liked the look of a dump muffler, all it needs are some simmons and it would be prime!!!
