if you make a brace like that it will put an awkward bend in your bumper, depending on what it's made of, if it's urethane, you might get away with it but CF or FG, no way

ya a brace wont work, try getting the bumper you have and stretch it..if you can even stretch it,it wont fit properly

dont force it because if you stretch it out and then bolt it on, the first bump is just going to crack that part because its stretched out to the max
