Default nice
Glade to see you figured it out. wish I would have made a diy on how to do it. Once you cut the ends off it all falls into place..

This is the cleanest way to chop a factory bumper..................

Yours is definitely one of the cleanest jobs. Would you mind taking pictures or explaining how you reattached the end pieces? I don't care for the rivets or the screws being exposed.

Thank you!

Anyone know if the Jeep on the startup cover for this forum, has the factory bumper cut like this, or is it an aftermarket bumper?
