    I just realized today that I actually already have the 00-02 crash bar. I guess I completely forgot that @JasonC. Included it and somehow I completely looked passed it, when it was stored on the side of the garage, next to the bumper itself. I feel so stupid. Unfortunately it doesn't have a spot for the power steering fluid cooling loop. But I already zip tied that to the front crossmember. So I guess this weekend I'll be removing the bumper for a third time and installing the crash bar. I liked the idea of no crash bar, because it left tons of room for activities (like an intercooler), at the cost of safety. But I still have to figure out how I'm going to mount the auxiliary fog lights and I think having the crash bar could potentially give me and easy place to drill and mount to.

    When I bought it, there was no handle (or trim) there. I accidentally ordered the wrong color and didn't care because I never put form over function. But someone here gave me the charcoal trim piece for free.
