    I have no place to put my front plate since i have a modded front bumper, I must have one cuz im in ohio, I was thinking about just putting it behind the front bumper with some zip ties.... or trying to find like an L bracket that would work.... anyone know a good way to fix this problem? also I have a hood scoop and I dont want water/SNOW to get in during winter, and since the hood scoop is open from both ends i feel like snow mite build up n melt n get in, should i put something under the hood so if water gets in it dont damage engine? help!!! ALSO anyone have any suggestions on after market CD players, I want an IPOD hook up real bad and I dont want them cheap things that plug into cig lighter, what one should i get

    with the retractable one listed above, you don't have to retract it up and down, just leave it up. (I have seen some people zip tie it behind the bumper.... in front of the radiator....

    i would ruin that bumper, haha. just because i dont like hiding them behind the bumper in the lower part of the air dam (thinks it looks worse then actually mounting it) i would pop a couple holes in the bumper on the drivers side and zip tie it in.

    I don't know how to feel about that Spartan, have you seen it done on a GP? I'm just curious because I've been considering it.
