is this true? will removing front and back bumpers increase the body roll?

it will make a lot of drag. like taking your hood off just about. why would you want to do this? hopefully not to lighten the car down

If it's a car you drive on the streets (or are planning on) I wouldn't go without the bumpers for safety reasons... Now on to your post: Since the Fox Mustang is unit-body construction, I can't see any adverse effects from losing the bumpers. You could always weld a piece of square stock across the sections just in case though.
