The new Protoform uses a bolt-on front bumper (for proper body lines and proportions on most cars, you need at least one end pulled separately), which is a nice touch to give you the opportunity to get a little more use out of your body when the front end inevitably gets damaged.
If I would have had a spare front end for this HPI 'Cuda, I wouldn't have had to throw it away after the Nationals a couple of years ago...
