Installing Intercooler troubles :-(

Well i decided to go ahead and try to install the ams intercooler today... alone... . Well eventually I got the bumper off and got the ams intercooler in place and realized there was no place to screw it down, or up. Anyone else have this problem?Instead of screwing straight in like the stock ic, the brackets are horizontal and have holes for you to screw them up. Anyways the holes didnt line up with anything. It seems like between the piping and the hangers it's pretty solid.

Question # 1: Should i find some extra support for the IC? Or do you guys think it should be ok on the hangers. It only moves about an inch with moderate force ( me pushing it)

#2: Anyone have some pics of how the splash guards or whatever it's called go? I screwed in the top of the bump and fender wells but i'm not sure how the black part fits in with the bumper. In some places it looks like it goes on top and in other places looks like it goes on the bot. Any help is appreciated!

If you remove the weight thats mounted to the top side of the black lower support bracket, you will see two holes that the lower IC brackets mount to. Transfer your rubber grommets and sleeves to the AMS intercooler and install using the two supplied 10mm bolt and nuts supplied.
