Rodent,
I'm not sure if we have or if we are talking about the same part. I have removed my front bumper and it comes in two pieces. A front part and a back part that I think is called an inner bar reinforcement. There are also a few parts bolted in between. When I got the two apart, I then took the front part (with the rubber bumper molded to it) and I cut off the rubber down to the bare metal. Now I can take my "new bumper", the fiberglass piece that replaces the rubber, and it will slide over the front metal part. I could then bolt the front and back together again but there is nothing really holding the fibergalss piece on. It fits very nice, just nothing to hold it on. The valance even looks like it will even fit over the new bumper nicely.
I'm not sure if I will have to bolt the new part on or try to find some kind of adheasive that will be strong enough to hold it on.
Keep me posted on what you do.
Thanks,
Dave F
