un bolt it and throw it away or try to sell it. or run it thru a bunch of brush and rocks then get rid of it. i couldnt believe how wimpy it was when i took it off.

although trimming it might be a better use of your cash.

I cut my ends off right at the frame. Cut the top part and put in a winch plate.

No end caps, no paint.

$0, I got a winch plate for free and used the stock fog lights.

^^^What he said. You won't have to take it off though.. Just hit a mall light post and it will fall off like a domino.

That thing is the biggest Joke of a bumper I've ever seen.
