You can't it will show up both sides, on one side it will show correctly and on the other it will show it reveresed. Sorry for letting your hopes down put you can place it on the hood of the car or anything that doesn't show on 2 times on the warthog

the bumber doesn't flip... nor does that little extruded rectangular piece of hood that protects the gauges. Everthing else does. Even the hood.

Ah so if you put it on the hood it would show 2 times? Once flipped and once normal?
