You do not NEED the guides.
I did the exact same thing about 2 months ago. On the inside of the bumper on each side is a tab that clips into the guide. You can just cut out the middle of it and it will slide around the guide just fine. It is normally used to hold the bumper on at that area but it really isn't needed as it is held on up top and on bottom. I cut mine and it makes no difference.
