Well getting the bumper off was tedious haha not hard just loads of screws and hidden screws. OH and all those stupid clips everywhere grrr. Then the upper and lowers splash guard!!!!

Fun part = Sawzall

Here we go!

Bumper off with both splash guards exposed:




Splash Guards Off:




Hood latch support cut out. I decided to not just cut it in half and just cut out the amount needed and leaving it somewhat in tact:

Top:


Bottom:

How she sits now:

Intercooler mounted:

Tomorrow I get to cut some more and mount up the piping etc.

Should I keep those tubular plastic forms behind the upper grill?

looks mighty fine, when you look through the lower air dam you see a big radiator , epic !

Ya it will be funny to see ppl look in the rear view and be like "wtf? no... no way omg is that a" and then they see me go bye bye lol haha

I know lol my thinking is weird haha.

lololololol

very nice man, wish i could afford that lol. the mod bug kills me sometimes lol

Ive been planning this for 3 years hahaha I only jumped on it because the price was a steal! Cheaper then top swap with intercooler!!! Trust me I know the $$$ situation all too well.

look good.

Yup. Im jealous! looks good man!


Bumper removal isnt hard at all. Or very time consuming for that matter. I can have mine off in like 15-20mins. by myself

Oh and as far as the things that go behind the grille opening. Pitch 'em.

I never said it was hard or time consuming I just said it was tedious lol. A bit overkill on the clips in my mind haha

EDIT: I was planning on pitching em but idk I might do something "custom" and if I screw up on em oh well back to plan A lol.

Yeah. What air going to do with lower air deflector piece thing-a-ma-jig? I might be interested in it if you dont want it.

The lower one is going back on. I have to cut a little 3" piece in it but it will fit back on. The middle piece (the one standing up right in one of the pics) is trash same with the ducts if I can't do something with em.

Damn. That lower deflector is hard to find.
