What exactly are you talking about? The bolt in frame rail D rings? If so you can trim so they sit flush but that's about all there is to them.

Are you thinking of a bumper that has openings to allow the Evo tabs to pass through? If so, you will need to fabricate what you want as the Evo kit is a "bumper delete" kit.

Good point, should've just went with a bumper but didn't want all that weight

Poison spyder BFH is about as minimal as you can get and add almost no weight. It also incorporates recovery points.

Also requires cross member removal which makes it a permanent (more or less) mod, a friend I mine has it though and it looks great

Yup that's why I just ordered the D rings from EVO, I'd like a lil more but it is what it is. Wish it wasn't so irreversible.

The BFH bumper is not compatable. Even if you cut openings for the tabs the issue would be that the BFH bumper requires more frame cutting than the Evo tabs.

My sugestion is to go with the Evo tire carrier. This will give you something in the back for the look of a bumper even though you have none. Or just get some formed channel and cut to fit.

There's a pic on a thread, maybe the EVO D'ring thread of a home-fab job that looks great
