Man... you didn't need to cut your bolts.
I had this exact problem, well for the back two on the front subframe anyway.
turns out there is an access panel under the carpet.
Pull the carpet and underlay, you'll see a tar bord like covering. You have to cut it, but do so in a way that you'll be able to fold it back down.
below the tar bord, there are two thin metal strips, cut them at the base with a set of side cutters or whatever.
From there you can easly place a 21mm wrench over the nut.
Hope it helps
