Don't cut the bumper is my vote. Modify the brackets and tuck it up and in. The rear bumper has less curve than the front. Are you sure you have a rear bumper? The rear bumpers still hang down too low for my taste as well. I say tuck it.

Here is my bumper:

My next AD will use a 54 bumper tucked up and back so as to utilize the license plate dip.
