Quick release front bumper cover
« on: March 29, 2015, 10:04:13 pm »
I just installed my quick release kit from overkillfabrication.com Im super impressed with his design, best one ive seen, way better then the rubberband set up that i see everywhere. I dont like to buy things I could make myself but good for this guy to engineer this. I covered my side marker holes and the access point to the bolt behind the marker is non existant now.

Pics of installed product, feedback on ease of use?

I have been thinking of doing this for a few years now.  Sure would come in handy when it needs a tow.

Im not putting pics up on here (pain in the ass). Its fantastic trust me. The only concern I have is if the dazus fasteners locking or not... I havnt road tested yet. Im still waiting on parts from an old friend...

Thanks.  I was thinking of using some kind of locking fastener.  Kind of a pita though.

There are rivets that hold the dazus fasteners in. I plan to paint bumper before I finalize the assembly.
