Sc@ Chi Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 There's loads of info on the net about how to do it (various methods), but has anyone any experience in engineering a flip front for a mini? Specifically, can it be done in the same manner as most people do it overseas? Normally the flip front is one piece (either fiberglass or original steel panels) but running brace bars from the inner guards/scuttle to the front of the subframe. If so, were there any particular things the certifier wanted you to do? Just looking into the feasibility at the moment. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAN_KILLA Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I have seen them cert'd here before... next time I see the guy I shall ask him about the cert process... From memory he didnt have to add too much to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 only one ive ever seen was in the uk where cert is not a problem guy only did it to make room for a vtec, please tell me this is why you are doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAN_KILLA Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 the one I know of he did it because it makes it so incredibly easy to get all the guards, bonnet, grill etc out of the way for when your working on it... and it looks interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
