#1 please stop making a new thread for each of your questions.
#2 you DO NOT have to remove crash bar but if you do, it will make installation a heck of a lot easier.

If you remove your crash bar and get into accident you can kiss your engine good bye so for safety reasons it would be better if you left it there.

Remove 2 black attachments from the bar, as they will interfere with area where you have 2 vent holes on vis bumper.
Using marker or pencil mark areas on your bumper where you would need to cut into bumper to make room for crash bar.

Essentially you need to cut 2 L shaped holes, remove a few inches of the bumper (huge middle vent top part of it) and your bumper will fit with crashbar.

Now if you dont plan to get into front end collision any time soon you can just remove that crashbar altogether and save yourself an hour worth of work. But like saying goes.. you will be responsible for your own safety.

Is the crash bar required for inpection? Someone i was talking to (they are pretty dumb) but said that its required to pass inspection, which kinda made sense ya know, cause its not very safe lol. just wondering
