Does this require OEM sub bumper reinforcement bar?

It does not require it per se. It can be used with or without. If you have the OEM hitch, the reinforcement bar is the hitch. If you don't have a hitch it's probably easiest just to remove it.

The holes to mount the bumper are already on the frame mount, so no, it does not require the OEM sub bumper reinforcement bar.

Yes it does. It went on easily and looks good. It seems a little light than the OEM bumper but for the price its fine.

If you (as I) have an E.U. version you need to remove and modify the bumper. Just a tiny modification, but a lot of work. 1day approx. For an U.S. version it seems to be a simple installation and no need for modification, 2 hours of work approx.

No, it does not need a sway bar add on since the Equalizer hitch is a two-in-one: weight distribution and sway bar. You do not have to remove the sway bar in order to back up like a regular sway bar. Very good product.

Don't know about an aftermarket rear bumper. On a standard bumper, remove the two bolts connecting the standard number to the frame and feed the bracket between the bumper and the body. Before you connect the bracket to the frame make sure you connected the cage brackets to the frame bracket (d0 not tighten). Use the replacement frame bolts supplied with the cage.

I don't know what a face bar is, but what I bought was a bumper. It was a perfect replacement for my original bumper. Fit good and still looks like the original after 6 months.

I had to raise the left and right bumper reinforcements about 1/8th of an inch for a perfect fit on my 01 4door lx. Don't have an origonal radiator support though so that was probably the issue. For the price I was very satisfied.

Not sure why someone said no, mine has bar support, maybe it depends what year model

I think Subaru deleted the mounts that these bars plug into for the new WRX. I would wait until you get it before you order these.

It is just the two cross bars. My Subaru Crosstrek already had the sidebars.

The bar across the top has two mounting tabs on the backside that you cannot see in the attached photo. I put the two front floods from the existing TJ bumper in this spot.

No, not as a direct replacement it will fit in the location as I replaced it in my 98 EB with the stock mount but you will need a sub ring that you can pick up from your local audio/window tinting shop most likely they'll have tons of spares and just hand you one but you will need to place the ring inbetween the sub and the plastic mount and drill your new holes through

Mine didn't but it is very easy to install, just pop off the two caps on the back bumper and screw the bolts on the rack in. Them clamp down the bolt locks to ensure they do not loosen during travel. Lock with key to ensure no one steals the rack... That's pretty much it... Awesome product by the way.

You have to get new brackets this bumper does not come with them...Hope I answered your question.

Yes. It is identical to the original bumper. Takes about an hour to put on with little to no hassle.

No, I mounted a Warn VR8000. Fit without any mods and I've noticed no issues with the bumper not being able to handle the load of my 2000 TJ under winching load. No plate necessary.
