After seeing a few Alfetta's running around without bumpers, the look tickles my fancy. First question, presuming i correctly remount all electrics housed in the bumpers, will the car still be roadworthy?

The Vicroads roadworthiness requirements state

"Bumper bars and bull bars, where fitted, must be secure and designed to eliminate sharp corners or protrusions which might cause injury to other road users. they must not obscure and lamps, unless additional lamps are fitter, and must not substantially exceed normal width of the vehicle body. ADRs and vicroads information sheets cover visibilty angles of lamps. ends of bumper bars must turn towards the body to a sufficient extent to avoid any risk of hooking or grazing."

does this mean i can just remove them and not be breaking any rules? any help appreciated.

I've been driving my 105 without bumpers regularly on the roads for the past 7 years without drama. Provided your not driving like an idiot and everything looks neat and tidy you won't be bothered.
They'll happily slap a canary on bumperless VL Commodore Turbo with a truck intercooler fitted though! Thankfully. 

A lot of Alfa's look quite racy sans bumpers methinks, 105 and 116 series especially.

sorry to be young and ill-informed Ed, but sans bumpers? no bumpers?

It is unfortunately a plastic bumper, however the plan was to maybe use one of the spare front panels i have, (could even practice on the one i ruined at sandown if i get it back), and just cut holes to accomodate indicators. number plate is easy enough, just drill two holes.
There are already a lot of vents in the panel, so could just "expand" a few of them maybe?

mmm, cable ties sound much better than marking it out, grinding out holes, welding metal back in when i stuff it up, then finally getting it right. thanks muchly 

I dont think it will be an issue if you relocate the indicators and front number plate. (at least thats what you can tell the  cops)

The styling looks complete without bumpers, the front and rear valence is intergrated and flush with the body work and the bumpers add on and protrude unlike other cars that have cut outs or indentations to allow for bumpers. Thats probably why the car looks good and doesnt attract the wrong type of attention without bumpers. Apart from that the Alfetta sedan looks tough without them ditto the 116 GTV and 105 and gives a hard arsed race look

Ive taken them off my 105 and theyre not going back on, also cause the bumpers are shagged and make the car look rough. Touch wood never been pinged as well

had a day off work today and finally got around to actually doing it. front end anyway. back end has to wait until it gets straightened out a bit first.

thought i'd try and give everyone a nice view to look at in the rear view mirror as they fly past me. also, the rear bumper sort of kind of covers where it's been punched in, so il wait until i can get it sorted till i take on the rear end i think.
