But seriously why would anyone want to burn their rear bumper? Epecially when you burning $1.5/L of 98ron these days.

a) It's a UK car, it would have been de-catted
b) The legalities surrounding these aren't exactly clear cut, if it's fitted, and you don't use it on public roads then as far as i know its fine
c) You're igniting unburnt fuel in the exhaust fumes so it's not costing you a cent more

It definetly is stupid but, fucks your rear bar right up, paint blackens and/or bubbles after a while. Have to say though, looks excessively cool 8)

Cost you about 200 - 250bux. From what I recall it's usually just a spark emitting device drilled into your muffler with a wire and switch that you run to the dash.

yeah its not that hard to do...make sure u have some fire-repell paint on the back bumper...would be quite funny at the lights!

your right about it not costing a cent. if the fuel is there...then its already been wasted - might get some use out of it after all...

Yeah, it's not something I'd want on my machine, I just found it to be an interesting concept. Good for a show car, nothing else..
