As a person with experience hacking up a Civic bumper like that(personally I wouldn't recommend it, but whatever, it's your car), I'd have to say that it's really not hard.

Take a close look at your bumper, and just give it some thought. You want to cut the slats away from the inner duct as close as possible, then sand down the remains until the evidence of the slats are gone. I also did the same with the side vents in the past. Didn't look that bad, but it didn't really look that good either. To each his/her own. Good luck

I'm not quite sure on what you are asking for, but the car you have posted up has
a stock front bumper with a J's racing front lip. No cutting involved when installing the lip. it fits over the stock bumper and usually is bolted/screwed on.


And if you are talking about the center grill being cut out its fairly easy to cut it away with a hacksaw when you remove the bumper.
