I'm on vacation for the next 10 days after tomorrow so I'll be getting some more things done and then I'll be taking some better pictures.

Thinking about cutting the opening in the bumper and making it bigger. Not sure if I want to cut into that bumper though but I definitely think it would look great. Got a CIA DP showing up on Tuesday. Probably get that installed next week and then a tune shortly afterwards. I'll give her a full bath next week and take better pics

So does that intercooler go behind the steel rebar, or force you to remove such?

you removed the entire bumper bar that connects to the rail plates??

I didn't...you shouldn't have to. It was a super tight fit....but you probably shouldn't remove the bumper bar....

If you happen to get hit in the front....that bar majorly helps with impact. With it not being there...it's a pretty big safety issue. Anything that "would have" hit the bumper bar...is now completely into your engine/cooling system...

I removed it for the install only. Took 30 extra seconds to give me a lot more room to install the IC then I put it back on.
