So did I hack enough of the bumper for my FMIC hahaha
 

I think I went to wide on it (you can see the piping connecting to the endtanks lol) ... theres still another 4" or so above the rub strip so I might just cut that part as well.

damn.... why did you cut so much!?!?

That looks hacked and ghetto.

I hope you plan on somehow making it look cleaner.

Should have sharpen the butter knife alil more.

GHETTO FABrication.

lol well i was overheating badly so i just went .. hmmmmmmm i wonder if i cut it wider if i could get it to cool down .. little did i know that the water pump and radiator were pooping out ... so i took my trusty dremel and slipped while cutting lol

its an s4 bumper so i really dont care and i will be replacing it with the 2000 bumper soon lol

from the pics you had such a nice clean vert, very sleeper... and you hacked it up! Ack! I wish the body on mine was as nice as yours was

Daaamn disses comin' left and right haha. At least you have an intercooler taking up your front bumper :squint:

damn just what i was thinking. lol

Need another bumper? I got one... lol

bondo baby. bondo.

y would u even need to cut the hell outta the front bar, just silli mate.
looks crap and is Cop bait.
i got a front mount and i havnt cut any thing at all. fits perfectly

Hacking the bumper is GHEY!!!

Function > Form

you don't grasp the point that this doesn't function. its not ducted or anything.

Ouch.


Just don't make it worse by covering it w ricer mesh.....

Yeah, but I bet all the air going around the IC has helped his overheating issues a bit.

just a bit ;) lol ... my radiator and water pump took a poop anyway but what can ya do haha

LOL, damn man. Well, just get yourself another frontend and you'll be good to go again! I don't care either way, not my car, but just be happy with what you do.

the front mount cooler there, will most likely over heat the car any way. if done incorrectly. weather the cooler is ther or not if ur car is healthy it wont overheat. i got stock radiator and water pump and it has never overheated, in 40degee celcius, still runs under half way heat, and my heater core leaks coolant, and it still never manages to over heat. a rotor that over heats mean there is something wrong with it

i'd take a look at your engine if that's happening. your thermostat may be set to open wayyy to low.

fyi i already said my waterpump and what not crapped out ;)

mine is pretty hackful as well.

lol i wish i could find the picture of this one guy. he hacked his bumper up pretty bad and crooked as hell not only that he had pulled some 1st gen mirrors and mounted them on his fenders like 3rd gens that i have seen( mind you he had a s5).

dawicka2 where did you get that front lip from?

CUZ IT'S SOLID JDM YO! Now y'all can see his shit since hes boostin the heel outta that shit bra! Yea. And he can go: Hey yo, get outta my way cuz Ima eat yo shit!


:wallbash:


If the car was overheating, why not find the problem to fix it instead of doing dometiunhg like that?! Like, I dunno...ummmm....reposition the FMIC?! :)
