Has anyone attempted to modify the OEM plastic bumper into a stubby like the Rubicon steel bumper converts into? I am not even sure if its a possibility but wanted to see if anyone just modified the included front bumper.

In my case the ends were bent up just enough to interfere with the 35x12.5. I have a spare bumper with some shorty up swept ends to put on when I get the chance.

And before you dogs start barking, I know it's a jk not a jl/jt but ultimatly this is the goal right? Closing the ends is really the trick unless you are okay with the feral ute look.
