Smooth Bumper Question

Question for anyone that has put smooth bumpers on their impact car.

I'd like to keep the stock bumpers and get rid of the rubber on the front, and back. Probably keep the accordions. The rear seems pretty straightforward, for the front - how best go deal with the bumper mount bolts being behind the rubber on the front?

Bumpers, as you know are alloy so tig weld bolts to them as you fill the old bolt holes.... cut the bolts off of the shocks and drill appropriate holes to thread the tig welded bolts thru the plates....apply nut and tighten...done.
