Pictures of S4 Stock bumper cut for FMIC?

Putting my bumper back on but i'm sitting there staring at it trying to figure out which way i cut it upwards would look best. I know cutting a hole in the moulding area is popular but i'd probably just rather cut upwards of the stock opening. I've looked around and most pictures i can find are of S5 bumpers and aftermarket bumpers.

Thanks,
Brendan

I dont even use the bumper anymore, but some of these people dont understand. I know that everyone has their preference. Try making upwards of 500rwhp and keep the IT's down. I had originally cut just the bottom portion but, I needed more airflow. its just these NA people that dont understand.
