good job bro, I love seeing custom work on FDs, I did the same thing, just sat the RAD up a bit to fit pipes over the top and with the flexible stock RAD pipes it was easy to fit

Nice job on the IC.
Noticed the Apexi intakes are right up on the radiator. The Koyo is a little more than twice as thick, so there may be a minor clearance issue. The Apexi intakes are the first ones I used, but I later got the GReddy Airinx which come with smooth pipes and stay closer to the passenger side of the engine bay. I actually noticed the car was faster with the Airinx.
Again nice job on the custom work.
