I cut both of mine off - along with the stupid plastic bracket too.
You need to tuck the middle anyway. So, just drill and bolt FTW.

I took my tabs off and used zipties. I think I just had to get some long ones. Four holes drilled into the bumper, four into the heat shield and secure that bish. Done.

^^ Sweet! I'd think about removing the muffler shield. It's not needed with the single system. That finned diff cover is awesome to see from behind.

Here's mine before I send it in for paint with molded side rear pieces I tucked the center and cut out the side a bit as well for a different look from the typical tuck only.
