Suzuki Jimny JB74 Cutting the Front Bumper

Suzuki Jimny JB74 Cutting the Front Bumper
2 inch up tire

We will cut the front bumper to install this tire. It’s 2 inches up, but with this size it will definitely come in contact with the bumper due to bumps during off-road driving. I’m looking forward to it.

Destroy rivets with a drill

Today is a holiday and the weather is nice, so it’s a good day for bumper cuts. Immediately, a rubber windshield? Mudguard? Is in the way. Since it is fixed with 2 rivets and 1 screw, destroy the rivet with a drill and remove it. Also remove the surrounding resin clip.

Suddenly, it is a completed photo. This is the position where the former bumper was located up to the red line. I cut the lower part of the bumper over 5 cm with my electric saw, cut the corners diagonally, and then made two holes in the lower part of the bumper. Furthermore, while pushing the inner liner toward the front side of the vehicle, fix the rivet hole, clip hole and lower part of the bumper of the inner liner with a binding band.

I didn’t cut the inner liner. And it’s okay because you can’t see it unless you look from below. Unpainted resin is easy to process, isn’t it? It’s done!
