I completely agree, if it had a big front mount it would look mean

I did that to my old car. Unfortunately I sold it before I had a chance to put in a big front mount.

How did you do it did you just shave it off and leave it open or did you close up the holes?

Thats a good idea. It would be nice do have a big mouth on the pre 95 SCs. I think I might go ahead and chop mine since its already kind of sagging. By the way I like the wheels on the red SC. Who makes them?

After reading this thread I went ahead and did my modification to my SC

Easy as cake, didn't even get dirty! Only managed to destroy one plastic tab, LOL! You end up with five tabs on the lower protion on the opening...a dremel would've been nice tonshave em down, but I did what I could with a knife and small file. IMO makes the front end much cleaner.

Pics please!
Anyway, could someone photoshop to remove 2 pieces on the sides (near the fog lights) and leave the middle piece intact?
