I think those 3 bolt C-style mounts on each side of the intercooler are where the bumper/crash bar subassembly bolts in. That is a beast looking build. ---

The bumper also screws in at the fenders, or clips, I forget its been a while since its been on. :ham: And yeah, I made two supports that tie in together. The mount the intercooler, radiator and the oil cooler, they really tighten up the front end. ---

The mount the intercooler, radiator and the oil cooler, they really tighten up the front end. Are you modifying the bumper support, or fabbing a new one? I didn’t think there was enough room behind the stock typ89 bumper for an intercooler. Now that I think of it, this is a 1.8, right? you probably had room to move everything back. ---
