Advice needed!

After seeing the crazy sand and corrosion on the rear impact bar I inspected mine. Needless to say it is heavily corroded and full of sand and dirt. I temporarily sanded the surface corrosion off and ordered a beatrush replacement.
My problem is that the stock bolts are sized on from all the corrosion. Ive used pb blaster and an impact drill, only to snap one head and start to round another head. Those of you that got it removed, how?!?
Pics show the initial inspection and the current state of the bolt
