Sounds like too much.

As far as how it'll look?
The holes will be in the same location as the Chrome bumper that LMC has, and that's what got me to thinking about doing it myself

Owner sounds like a real hard (something we all sit on).

You are just not getting a deal with that guy, find another shop or do it yourself.

As for the "saw wandering" that is certainly a possibility. Now I know some hole saws come with a pilot bit in the center.......I assume you'll give yourself a healthy centerpunch for starters. I can't get to my drill press due to all the truck parts and junk in the way, I'd have to dry this by hand, with a drill, after blocking the bumper in position and very securely.

But I don't want holes in my bumper!

I do want fog lights though so after I get the grill guard figured out, I'm going to mount those to that. Would that be an option for you? Put on bumper guards, grill guard, or push bar and mount lights to that?
