if i take off my front bumper will the front airbag sensor still work?

does it control our seatbelts? do they have pretensioners like modern cars?

I want to weld a bar across the front air dam and i dont want to jimmy rig a airbag sensor.

 

Pick up a used race steering wheel

Remove the airbag wheel all together.

^ that yellow zx is new to me ^ any more photos?

Jomz you should just experiment with some ideas. Get your pipe for the bumper. Start cutting and welding, see what looks goOd. The bumper on the yellow zx posted could have looked better if it wrapped around

the sides of the front.

I LOVE IT, THAT CAR IS AWESOME.

I want to implement that type of front bumper to mine, i like the single bar though, not the cage like front bumper.

 

what do you think a little thicker for the pipe and have it wrap around the front bumper?

i want it to look like the front end of my 350z

Seriously.....we had a Snap-On jack fail at the shop recently.
