anyone no how to do this?
I am modifying the stock rear bumper and one idea is to run exhaust out through it, does anyone have any idea on how to cut round holes in steel?
Recently bought a 1989 Astro RS from Florida. Replaced stock engine witha 1997 5.7 vortec with TBI and replaced transmission with rebuilt 700R4 with mild shift kit.

Hole saw. Be sure the saw is for steel and not wood.

Re: anyone no how to do this?
I like that! Hmmm... I might do that. Looks cleaner than dangling down, and only need the tips to look good. Maybe a few holes for rear facing spotlights? I also like the hole for the trailer wiring, too.
