That is pretty standard with body kits. Some people are able to cut the support down but most people totally remove it. I think if you cut it, it would have much structual integrety afterwards. It is just a 5mph bumper but i personally would never run my car without it except for if i had a front mount.

The only bumper I know of that lets you keep the reinforcement intact is the Stillen. If I hadn't already tossed it in the fmic install I would have had to for the bumper install.
