Hey JP... I noticed the metal you cut off where the rear bumper went. maybe we can all learn from your madness (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Did you do it for weight savings, engine clearance, or what?

I am thinking of doing the same only keep the bumper on since I drive it on the street. Just take off the metal that does nothing. How about that tow mount. Looks worthless as well.
