Great write-up. I had to use 3" bolts as the 2" were too short in the center. I also just bought the stock hollow rod to make my custom spacers. 1 3/4" is how tall mine ended up as.

Edit: I am probably one of the very few that did the install with the bumper cover on. Was easily accessible through the kidneys and wheel well. I just put the front on stands and shimmed the splitter in the realtime install location and mounted.
