When people install front mounts that gets cut, usually with a drimal or some other cutting device. i dont think that its removable.

Naw, you have to cut it. Check out the APS website. They have instructions on how to remove and cut that thing off.

I wonder why they chose not to paint it. It kinda looks out of place.

I am not a huge fan of that piece either
