Didn't cut the bumper. I drilled 2 small holes in the top of the bumper and secured with nuts/bolts.
I'm assuming they were talking about the cutout you made to the bumper to be able to put it back on

Ended up buying from Extreme Terrain. @XTJake supplied a forum discount.

I am just wondering if welding it would be a better than using nuts/bolts. Probably more work but I think it will be more sturdy. I ordered a hoop and should have it installed in a few days.

Welding is def a good option, I just don't have the ability. Honestly with 4 bolts it is very sturdy.

Pretty dang risky and a lot of work but extremely happy with results. Picked up a standard powder coated grill guard for $70 and mounted to the frame. Wrapped the cut edges of the bumper with auto door edging.

Just seeing this. Nice job. Still not clear what you bolted to
