NO MODS at all according to Pete mate ;)

Even though it easier, i dont mind the cut look it gives it a race look.

Well he must have changed the design a little then because he told me about 3 months ago that you need to remove the mesh out of one of the trumpets on the front bumper:confused:

There is a couple of tweaks needed behind the bumper to brackets and mesh.

Here we go.

The only mods needed are very minor and do not affect the strength of the bumper.

See pics.

These show a section of the lower centre grill mount cut off. And you benefit from removing the 2 air duck grills due to the size of the clips holding them on.

Regards

Daz

Nick and Johnny, on the bumper you have the two egg shape holes either side of intercooler as you look at, the small bits of mesh inside/behind these has to be removed. Not that you notice this mesh anyway, plus you can see the end tanks now.

Yes I know that's what Pete told me;) I know there is no cutting involved unlike the AMS cooler and Petes work is bespoke so I know it would be the best performing and custom fitted for the particular model in question. It is definately on my future mod list. But I had already bought my AMS hardpipes and APS intercooler so it will be a bit down the line unless I can get someone to buy my intercooler and hardpipes that is hint hint anyone:whistling:

Put it up for sale, you know it makes sense! You'll always be thinking that you wish you had bought the best rather than being behind me.
