if they wont take it off be sure to let them know your not paying for the extra hours of work they are going to be doing to try to get it to fit with it on!

They are uptight about it because they don't want to be liable if you are hurt or killed in an accident. Which is reasonable considering they are altering the safety features of the car. I would just tell them that you will take it somewhere else or see if they can draft a waiver or something...just my speculation.

get the car.......take it off yourself.......not many screws and it'll come right off. i think someone on here had trimmed it like whoa to get it to fit, but then his mom backed into him and cracked his front up. The easiest thing to do is to take all that off though.

I had to modify my support bar for the bumper to fit. Be carfull beacause most insurance companys will not cover you if you get in a wreck if you have no support bar.

I have the sinsei front and I just took my support out. Didn't really want to but it was clear it wasn't going to fit that well with it in there... Dont know what to tell you, except for I guess you could try modifying it!
