Default Posssible to shave INGS rear bumper step?

I really like the look of the INGS rear bumper but I feel like the "step" ruins the clean flow of the design. Has anyone ever modified the bumper by shaving the step down or getting rid of it somehow? If so please post pics and process.

Of course it is possible but it would be ALOT of work.For the amount of work involved your better off finding a different bumper. I agree with you it would look better without hump

I don’t think it would be worth the amount of money you would potentially have to spend.

Or you can just get this one:

I'm not sure if I'm serious about this, but they make it in carbon fiber also!

I don't mind the step on the INGS one. Anyone had any good luck with any of the INGS copies???

thanks

Wow, that's exactly the INGS kit but without the step! How is that DuraFlex stuff? Sure looks convincing in the videos, and I assume it should fit pretty well.

They say modifications are necessary for perfect fitment.....

true. the amount of materials and labor would kill you. not to mention that the chances of all that work coming out good is slim. If you do it expect a large price tag, and some wavey paint

Maybe look into the Elia rear skirt?
Don't know how difficult it maybe to get though.
