bumper support is aluminum. if it doesnt work then just drill a small pilot hole then use the screw.

I just realized there are way too many threads on this question so they have all been merged into one central question thread.

Why not just use zip-ties in your existing holes intead of drilling new holes into the chassis or rear crash bar?

I tried but as soon as I bent the tab it broke.

so now no tabs. I was thinking of somehow making something to bolt into those holes to hold the bumper up.

I just turned the white tabs instead of taking it off so I can't lose it lol and used 5 screws to hold the piece in place. Here's my bumper tuck
