no need to cut anything, bolts right up, even with a larger FMIC!

I would also recommend when installing the splitter to make some sort of reinforced brackets to go behind the bumper where the rods will be attached. I just drilled holes in the bumper and put the screw through and after driving at high rates of speed, I noticed that the rods are pulling the original screw brackets out through the bumper. I hope that makes sense.

yeah, you can probably see in my pics I put extra washers all around. I actually mounted the rods to my mesh with washers.
