I removed the complete front bumper assembly on my car. When I built the cage I put in a nose bar that is about 12" above the frame rail and has 5 down post to the unibody. I welded a bar between the front support where the stock bumper bolted to. I then used the stock plastic upper nose piece cut back to as little as possible to support the upper nose. I made a nose "push bar" out of 1" thinwall that followed the contour of the point in the front, welded that to the roll cage. And for the bottom I made it a front breather so it was fitted with aluminum panels to direct the air to the radiator. Now the nose comes off with about 12 nuts and the whole front of the car can easly be worked on.
