Default Towbar Removal

Am I right in thinking that part of the rear bumper crash bar will have been removed to fit a towbar? If so, what will have been removed? I ask because I'm wanting to remove the towbar from the ZT and put it back to standard. Trouble is, what will I need to do this? Can anyone help? Thank you.

I refurbished my tow bar this year and the mounting for it replaces the crash bar entirely. You will need another crash bar but it should just bolt on.

Cheers Richard, guess I'll go and find/buy a crash bar first. Thank you
