Default Forge FMIC and alien removal - couple questions.......

Are the "caps" attached to the bumper or the aliens? Also - what do you use to plug the hoses or cap off the feed for the aliens? Thanks.

Default you mean the little doors they pop out of? those are attached to the bumper

I used a large bolt a zip tie and some silicon to cap mine off, plus I unplugged the wiring harness to the aliens pump.

Default Some details

Hey Joe!

I think (can't be sure) the caps are attached the bumper. As for the feed I used a large screw and then zip tied for extra protection

Default not at all..... we test fit and trimmed 'em up nice. We did have to do slight

bumper (the steel under bumper) modification to get it to fit without clearance issues but it's there and they work like before.
