help grill mesh w/ ETS 4" IC

Hi!

I'm currently in the process of installing the 4" Intercooler. But I've run into some problems. Does anyone have any pictures of how much cutting have to be done to the front bumper. I've looked at ETS homepage but just those 2 things isn't enough. Is there any way to keep the undertray and the holders for the mesh? I think it looks to bad without any grillmesh so I will probably take it off if I can't get it to work with the mesh.

I got the standard Evo 8 tank.

Ps. I've searched a lot but all the pictures have been taken offline, it was a while since they where uploaded. Ds.

Thanks guys!

I think most of it is just going to be trimming the bumper and test fitting it until you get it right.

It's trial and error my friend. I have their 4" also and a Voltex bumper and I had to put it on, take it off, trim, then put it back on, then do the process again..and again

I was able to keep the mesh with my ETS 4.5" FMIC. I haven't had the under tray on in years though.

I got my car with no undertray (looking at the beat rush) but I was able to retain all factory hardware with my ETS 4 inch

4'' is a pretty big damn intercooler, you may have to trim to bumper to get the ic pipes to fit.

You will need to do trimming on the cover, but the pipes will fit with no problem
