Rebar modification / cutting for '99+ bumpers (Pics!)
I wasn't able to find any thread about rebar modification, so I thought I'd snap a few pictures of my own and post them. All you need is an angle grinder, a cutting wheel, dust mask (you don't want to breathe that fiberglass dust...it gets EVERYWHERE), eye protection, and plastic to reduce the amount of dust that gets into your engine bay. It's no science...just test mount the bumper....mark off where the bumper touches and how deep the cuts need to be so it won't touch. Test fit again...check for bumper contact....trim....test fit again.

can anyone post a 99 rebar for those of us who want to save a few bucks and cut the stock rebar? comparing that with this cut job might save some time on the fit/refit of the bumper.
