The reason why it comes up short on install, is because the beams along the center frame go THROUGH the bumper.
Mine came installed at the dealership, and they obviously cut two round holes to gain access to the beam just behind the front bumper.
The lower portion of the bars don't attach to anything, but then again, your's has a chrome skid plate and mine doesn't...
