I didn't look into it yet, but a buddy of mine told me I'd have to remove the bumper... is that true?

Thanks
Yes, bumper removal is required and you will need the factory bumper beam to replace the hitch with. The other option in your case could be to carefully cut the lower 2" tubing section off the hitch to make it hidden.
Wow okay, thanks for the info.
Any idea how easy is bumper removal on this?
