Anyone know if you can remove the top slam panal and the car still be road legal ? I know they remove them on saxo,106 and 306 but are they only track cars ?

What are you going to fix the headlights to?
Bonnet clip?
Rad/fan mounts?

Etc.

More hassle than its worth

Headlight stay where they are.. There Bolted under and on the wings.

If i removed the Top slam panal. I would use my bonnets pins.

i'v alreaddy made my custom rad brackets for my rad and Fans.

My rads about 3 inchs thick!.

I just wanna know if my car will fail a mot without it.

I havent got a clue but just curious why you would do this, is it to save weight?

EDIT: DW after looking at that thread im guessing its so you can route the tubing.

Yeah its legal, i would add a bit of box section across just to give it a bit of strength back though

Ryan, I'v added Lower and upper strut braces. So That should add alittle strengh.

When i'v fitted my rad i'll make a new plate. Because i gotta refit all the Cars id plates/ weight plates ect. Lucky enuff the Vin number is up the left arch thing.
