Well as you can see i tore my car apart yestarday. Getting it ready for the FMIC install. I took the plastic bumper off also for now because i am going to sand down all the rust on the bottom radiator support and repaint the engine bay and front by the bumper before i drop my engine when completed. Anyways what is the easiest way to mount my IC? What will i be mounting it to, the bumper? Thanx guys Oh and the fastory mounting plates for the stock fog light i take off also? Oops forgot to put my fog lights in the pictures lol If i cannot use them with the FMIC i might sell them, they look new just like my headlights.

Did you have an intercooler sprayer on the sidemount?

It looks worse on camera but its not really that bad, alot of it is just surface rust thats all. but yeah hopefully it looks sweet when done

:rofl: good joke, but anyways its help up by jack stand behind the tires. the bucket is holding up the rear driveshaft assy. But funny man, i was acually waiting on someone to ask that because you cannot see the jack stands lol.

depending on the size of your intercooler you might be able to keep your bumper support. If you have to lose it no biggie, but it's also trimmable. For actually mounting the bumper you have a lot of choices. Most people fabricate their own brackets if the kit didn't come with one. You can't mount the brackets where ever you want. Check around and ask people. Mine mounted to the foglight brackets so I don't know the popular places for other kits.

If you have the generic ebay one this thread should help.
