This was made to fit the bumper exactly, the bumper pretty much snaps on to it and needs minimal securing. So it's not great for mass production

Looks like quality fab, nice job.
One thing to think about however, is that if you do street driving or track driving with that thing, the lower bar is really low. This means anything you hit will catch on that lower bar and not give. Remember that the corolla chassis is super weak, and you've now connected a metal bar that hangs 2" off the ground to your chassis. Be careful.

it's 3"s off the ground. it looks alot lower in pics.
the way it's built it'll tilt under any hard hits, plus, most of the front part of my corolla is tube so it's a bit stronger than stock as well as easier to fix.
