i dont think that painting the intercooler is such a good idea. bare metal transfers heat alot better than with a coating of paint on it, i would think that the paint would act as a insulator and hold the heat in the intercooler.
but im polish and drive a ford, so what do i know.

I did some minor changes since thoes pics were taken. I now have Tein S tech springs with adjustable shocks on the way.

I have maybe 1 finger width gap between the tires and fender but since the theels are wide and the tires stick out a bit it still looks really good.
I'll take some more update pics this week.

In the case of kamilk69 vs. intercooler paint, I find that the stealthness of the intercooler far outweighs all, if any negative effects of a ching chong meow intercooler. I sentence you to THE CHAIR!! :1
