Default Tommy Kaira bumper and front mount?

Hello guys I'm in the throws of rebuilding my engine in my 95WRX and I'm looking to extract the best I can from what I'm doing with the supporting modifications. I was looking for around 350 and I was thinking of fitting a front mount while I was at it. The problem I have is I've got a Tommy Kaira front bumper that I've just had repaired due to an incident with a badger and I'm a little reluctant to cut it around, as I was told that I have to cut the bumper to fit one. I was wondering though could I get away with not hacking it up? Is there a kit available that means I wouldn't have to? And has any one fitted a front mount with a TK Bumper? Sorry to drone on guys any help would be paramount.
Regards Ben.

I have a TK bumper and was in the same boat as you. I fitted a pace front mount with ally rad that I bought on here. They are not the best but fine for the power you are looking at. There is one in the for sale section, if a little expensive. No cutting and does the job.
