Re:Opinions needed on intercooler install
 
It looks like you kicked the ---- out of your bumper and screwed an intercooler onto the wreckage.

I know yours is a bit bigger than mine(only in this situation will I ever say that), but I got mine to fit pretty damn good.

EDIT: I can't believe I worked in that cramped little space I called a garage. :o

My front bumper is so fucked up that no matter what I do it'll probably look like ---- and I also don't have the front lights either. :-\construction is underway, I tried cutting and modifying the stock support, got about a quarter of the way through so I'm making a custom support.


Stay tuned for the finished product.



Also, if I was smart I would take down the pics so people wounldn't make fun of me but I'll leave them for your enjoyment

Okay 3 things

1) That just screams "STEAL ME, STEAL ME!!"

2) I don't think that will exactly go with the "sleeper" look.

3) It's ------ ugly. Cut the support and put it inside the bumper and you're fine.

ok, this is as far as I can go tonight without a welder so don't mind the tie wraps :P I made a custom support and this is the best its going to look with the front bumper as hacked up as it is.
