maybe....  you always run the risk.  i had my 81S for a whole year with
no bumpers, front OR back.  i never got pulled.  depends where you live.
 if all the cars around your area are very nice and new, you may.  i
really liked the look of the back with no bumpers, the front not as
much.  but i never got around to doing anything about it.  if you get in
a wreck, make sure you don't hit a lawyer...
