I say it look's great as is and you can un-bolt the bracket the bump-stop is mounted to, the hole is already in the frame to mount it directly to it.

How do you get that thing out of there? Is there a bolt inside of it? I couldn't see anything inside of it.

Looks great!

There is a stud on the top of the bump stop, but like said, you can just unbolt the bracket then unbolt the bump stop from the bracket and there is already a hole in the frame for the bump stop to bolt directly to it. That what I did. Gives you an extra inch.
