SAFELY lighten the bumper supports?

instead of taking them out is it possible and smarter to just but a bunch of holes in it to lighten it instead, like cam gears....Im worried insurance would kill me if i didnt have any supports at all and my bumpers might sag

nope...only one way...just drive safe...
nah these suckers are hollow...but the steel is heavy...well i don't think u should do it...it lighten up your car but messes with the handling..

how does it mess up your handling? im not thinking of doing it but i feel like less weight means better handling...i guess it must add stiffness to the frame?
the bar kinda act as a strut bar or some sort...you are losening up the body of the car when u remove it...i don't know exactly what happens but i notice more body roll than before..
