I installed an ETS turbo kit (3076) and my stock fan dosent fit.

I am so mad.

I'm looking for a very clean, effective, professional looking and perfectly functional engineering solution for this.

The wiring is not the problem. I don't want it to look home-made. I want it to look absolutely professional, almost stock. This would require fabrication. I am so upset about this.
