Pics of Trimmed Factory Front and Rear Bumpers

I would like to get some ideas for trimming the factory front bumper. Any extra clearance that doesn't break the bank would be useful to me.
Here are a few that I found around... Please add anyones that I have missed.

Center section gutted and trimmed.




Cut high above the factory fog lights.




These are trimmed right below the fog lights. I suppose you could do this without the additional skid.

Nice pics, makes me realize I need better ones of mine!
Trimmed the sides and below the fog lights to give me some more clearance. So far I haven't had any issue's with it and it greatly helps me get a tire up on rocks and such without hitting the bumper cover.

Doubt it. I haven't seen anyone do this as of yet. I really like it, especially with the new tires. I should take some new ones so it's more accurate.
And thanks! :-)

Man I wish I had an early bumper the 06+ is just so much harder to trim and make look good.
