well i got stuck into the other bolt with a hacksaw and that seemed to work ok. im reluctant to use the hack on this bolt because its close to the bumper and scratches it.
keep the suggestions and ideas coming

what GAZ said is basically the only way ur gonna do it.
USe lots of CRC/WD40 too hehe and dont forget to plug the holes up when ur done. so it doenst rust out. |

mecrinch is a brand of spanner that grips the side of the nut
not the corners ideal for rounded nuts I have a set myself 12 spanners can do 30ish different sized nuts good in most situations but not in really tight spaces ie limited spanner movement 10-25 degrees may be worth looking at. |

like gaz said the grinder on it and put some maskin tape round the bolt head on the actual rear bar so it prevents it from gettin burnt with the grinder sparks, cut 2 of the sides of and then u wil have to flat sides to get a monkey wrench on to it thats wat my mate did and it worked fine and didnt damage the rear bar at all
