Default Anyone with a custom front bumper?

I need a new front bumper and I am considering the one from Vanacor that has a completely open grill and no front license plate holder. If anyone here has one installed please post pics. Also what to do about the gap from not having a plate holder? I'd like to get vents that go all the way accross but no idea where to find that.

Try filling out your profile... As of right now, I don't know what kind of car we are talking about since there was like 4 different styles throughout the C3 years.

I drive an 81. But I'm really interested in seeing pics of any vette with the custom front bumper from Vanacor without the license plate holder. Thanks.

Not a very good pic. Here is mine. I plan on building a full billet grill for it.
