Will this bracket work with an aftermarket bumper cover?

This bracket is engineered for OEM bumper covers. If your aftermarket cover uses different mounting geometry, test-fit before final installation to confirm alignment.

Do I need to remove the bumper cover to install this bracket?

You'll need to access the mounting points from behind the bumper assembly. Most DIYers remove the cover first for easier installation and to confirm proper seating of the bracket.

What fasteners does this come with?

Hardware is not included with this bracket. Use the existing fasteners from your factory bracket or purchase new hardware to match OEM specifications—refer to your service manual for the correct bolt size and torque specs.
