LoL uhm...can I drive my Z like this haha (warning: weird question)
So....I need to go pick up my hood and v2 bumper from the shop. The problem is that the shop is 45 minutes away each trip and I only have a small sedan which fits the bumper but there is no way of fitting the hood on there. I don't have the Element that I borrowed to bring the hood there anymore so my question is can I drive like this there if I take off my front halves of the fender lining?
Worst come to worst I could just get the bumper first then drive "hood-less" up to the shop. I am probly gonna do that but I think this is such a funny question I thought I'd ask anyway...have anyone gotten pulled over for driving hoodless or bumperless? lol It would look so funny. Last time I drove hoodless to pick up a CF hood and we stopped at a Starbucks and ppl were like "showoffs!"

ive done exactly you what you have picking up my stuff from my bodyshop. As long as you have headlights and tails, you will be fine..especially in teh day time. Just sucks when you see everyone staring at you like you are a ricer or something. No one thinks you are going to the body shop.
Even cali, you can drive your car with basically no panels just as long as you have headlights and tails. We had to take apart a truck and it look like we were only driving on teh chassis.

wrap the hood in a lot of bed sheets....and put it on top of the sedan and secure it some how...they key is to wrap the shiz out of it so it doesnt get scratched and ur car doesnt get scratched...
i think it would suck to go back and forth

If you do decide to drive it like that make sure you dont go on the hwy. The wind resistence will push the plastic fender guards into the front wheels and they will get chewed up. I would pull forward those pieces and tie up the splash guard on the bottom. ** I know this because I learned the hard way driving my car without a front bumper cover
