I have put one in seveal 1gs and never put the support back in. The FMIC kind of supports the bumper and you can still bolt it on top an the sides.

It is a better idea to leave it but it is more timely to toss it. I guess I would figure if my car was hit infront it would probably be totalled anyhow.

I was cleaning the garage and still have my old bumper support (from what is now swifty's car) if anyone wants it.
