Frack me..
Looks Sweet Boom! I am really liking this bumper with the Wrap-a-rounds. Are they hard to install? It looks like the toughest part is committing to cutting the body. Tape it, and sawzall it?
ALSO- where do I put my 7 way plug? gotta be able to tow the trailer..

Yep getting the line straight is the hardest part. I used a little air powered cutoff wheel to do the chopping on the lower qtr panels for a little bit more of a precision cut. What is tricky is the cut line isnt level. its 1/4/ to 5/16 lower underneath the tail lights than by the rear of the wheel well. My trailer plug is mounted up underneath and heald in place with some tie wraps until I find a better way to do it.

I wouldn't use a saw-z-all.. like Boom said, a small cutoff disk it your best bet. Maybe a small air saw, but I would not use a saw-z-all. Too big and not enough precision. You can get some pretty tough Dremel cut off disks, I used them to cut up my front bumper. http://www.dremel.com/en-us/AttachmentsAndAccessories/Pages/AttachmentsDetail.aspx?pid=EZ456

This is how Kevin instructed us
We made a rough cut, just high enough just to mock up the bumper for the final. Mock the bumper up with a small 2x4 in between the mounting points. Measure off the bumper to get a perfectly straight cut. tape it off and cut it. We used a 4.5" angle grinder with a cuting wheel.
PM Kevin on tw for the exact measurements, or call him for a certain few of you
