Carbing underpanel

I got a Carbing underpanel a while ago from CVR Motorsports (great guys to deal with btw), and tried to install it yesterday but ran into a major setback. On the underpanel, there is a front support that needs to be installed between the IC and the body of the car. However, there is a hard line that is blocking where it needs to go. Has anyone else experienced this? Everything else on the underpanel lines up and fits perfectly...it's just the front mount that doesnt work.

I'm thinking about just cutting out the part that is blocked, but want to make sure that there are no other ways around it or if anyone else has dealt with this...

Thanks.

I think that is the ACD line in the way. I think you would have to relocate the line. You may just want to sell that one and get the Beatrush underpanel. I just installed mine this weekend with no real issues.

+1 The Beatrush piece is a marvel compared to the Carbing under panel. Makes oil changes 5 minutes longer, but worth every minute of it.

I agree. Since my zero lift kit had to come off for the Beatrush panel, I don't have to worry about mashing it up anymore.

Ok thanks guys, I guess I'll just return it

But just out of curiosity, how hard is it to relocate that line? And if I do relocate it, will it adversely affect anything?

You should be okay as long as you don't kink any thing in the process.

Ok so the verdict is to remount that line. It seems to be a pretty important one, and I dont want to mess it up... How do I go about doing this?

I would just return the Crabing panel and get the beatrush one. I don't know how to relocate the line but I would personally prefer not to touch the line at all.
