On that car, it does look like doo doo baby.

I only want one set and it would look clean on my ****, no reflectors, mesh, or orange....

I'm also cutting out that bar and plate mount in the front.

i would reconsider cutting out that front bar as well unless you want to lose bumper integrity/stability

I see your point but there are a LOT of similar styled bumpers who do not have said beam and maintain an equal rigidity. I'm not concerned with it.

that is because they (the other "similar style bumpers") are designed to be that way. that bumper is not designed to be that way. that is the difference.

its fiberglass. its already super rigid. i cant see that making that much of a difference. i may try it i may not. it was a free repaired bumper so if its a fail i'll buy you a beer and deal... lol
