The rear position closest to the wheel well is pretty hard to get to. So if you have any special nut/bolt recommendations fire away. The last bolts had to be dremel cut.

I know.. I am at work now and cannot measure up..
I wanted to hit the hardware store on the way home. Thought someone might be able to measure for me. IIRC the holes are the same used for the OEM bumper.

The ones on top of the bumper? On the OEM bumper, there are no holes there...
they were made to secure that bumper as far as I can tell...
the oem bumper is held on by blind clips on the wings.

yep that's it.. between the headlight and the fender.. two places to mount
Not sure what size they are, or what hardware I should use. It's hard to get pliers or a socket in for removal, so there must be better hardware I can use for easier removal.

I thought about that.. also some sort of mounting clips..
two of them on each side where it mounts currently.. just slide the bumper on and locks into place. might be worth some investigating?
