That’s my paint chip thxkbye.
:headbang:
Why not just move the plate over to the side, JDM style, then its out of the way for the air dam and you still have it on to be legal

That’s so fucking hideous, words can’t begin to describe…
Maybe if I wanted my car to look like Battlestar Galactica.
… and did you miss the part about AIRFLOW to the INTERCOOLER?
leave this thread immediately and go open a vein with a pair of diagonal cutters, kthxbye.
Are you running a splitter?
It really helps create lower pressure on the backside.

nah… I haven’t really done much re: handling or aero over stock… I figured I should learn to drive more before I change things up 
Air flow wise I dont think it wont make that much of a difference. If you are looking for a different look, I would just paint the bar flat black. Use a chip resistant rocker paint. That way you dont have a gaping hole there (which is ugly unless completey filled by a intercooler). The bar is nice and rigid too so you have a mounting location if need be.
it’s not rigid.
there is an IC (and oil cooler and PS cooler).
I’ll probably leave it out of sheer lazy/cheap-ness, you’re right, I doubt it’d make a difference, I am just curious of opinions.
:tup:

that is a Major airflow restriction.
I would cut it out, I think it looks better that way, and also a black IC would probably be pretty stealthy.

With a 4 X 1 foot hole in the front? are you serious? Maybe your grandparents wont notice it. Everyone else will. lol
you had to ask? You shoulda known itd look that good. DO IT!!!
wouldn’t remove the bar make the bumper less stable? it will wobble on high speed and the paint will start to crack?
maybe im wrong. but it would look hot if the intercooler showed more.

Even if they don’t see that, the FUCKING HUGE GOLD WHEELS or the vented CF hood might tip them off. :eyebrow:
I think it looks nicer, but in general when in doubt don’t cut.
