if i took of the front license plate holder, would there be holes. i tried to look behind through
the small crack, but couldnt see. im afraid that it is bolted to the bumper and would need
some kind of body work to cover the holes. am i right? ive seen some other cars, such as
spattman's with this done and they are awsome.

ps if body work needed to be done, how much do you think it would be?

thanks for any help

Yes. 3 holes. frown

Don't forget the bumper will need to be removed and painted as well. That will bring the cost up.

What color is your SVT?

I have made several sets of bumper plugs for CAP CEGers, and they look real good.

Hey everyone,

I have been looking at replacing my front license plate bracket with a new one. My existing bracket was smashed by a piece of ice from a transport truck, lucky it was only the bracket... I think. Since you fellas don't need yours would you mind selling them for a reasonable price. Let me know what you think.
ps. that is a very clean engine... good work!

Cheers,
Chris (strawchris@hotmail.com) smile

The first thing I did when I got my Tour' was take off that stupid front plate holder. My car is green so you can't really see the holes. It's not one of my worries. cool

hey...um....Andy, I know you have over 2000 posts, and I'm sure PLENTY of experience with your svt, but wouldn't connecting your intake to your fender duct be a good idea? It seems to work well with me. Maybe I'm on to something! wink
