quick release front bumper

Has anyone done this? It seems pretty useful at the track, and was wondering if anyone has done this. If so can you provide any tips/pictures?

I need this. I want this. Tomorrow. Today. Now. If someone is willing to make a kit like this, I'll be 100% in.

Those Evo X QR are bad ass. Price needs to come down a bit though.

you still bolt the bumper from the top. That price for the evox quick release is way to much, why spend that much when you can just spend $10 on these http://www.ebay.com/bhp/bumper-quick-release

^ because then you have to drill into the fender as well.

I had the quik-latch ones on my sti. They were awesome. I'd go with them just like @Gunman suggested.
