If you look through the picture sections you'll find some 05 up that have trimmed the bottom. I'll see who all I know that I have pics of and link them to you a little later to give you an idea. Most use cut offs etc to cut, you can also heat the plastic some and cut it with a knife real easy as well. I use a drywall hole saw on all of the front and rear bumpers I have done first one on the row here is one of the guys here in Ohio ( Megalos) may give you an idea

I used a Dremmel. Followed the lines under th front of the bumper and just eyeballed some masking tape around the sides to where I thought it looked right. |

I used a pair of tin cutters and shaved with a razor to clean it up. Took me no time and looks great. Nobody but me even know its cut. |
