Greddy Mspec install

So I am in the middle of the install and the instructions are a complete joke honestly. Does anyone know how the AC condenser gets mounted between the rad and the intercooler? Also does most people have a problem where the new bottom rad supports do not hold the rad close enough to the front of the car so that the fans do not hit the oil cooler lines that run in front of them. I just want to finish this thing. also the new power steering cooler lines are smaller then the factory ones so how do they expect you to use the same hose clamps? haha.

The instructions should show you how the brackets are mounted for the A/C. I think its one on each side and it mounts to the frame of the car, just in front of the radiator. For the radiator we never have issues with location. The tricky part is routing the intercooler pipe around the radiator to the turbo.

Here is a pic of how the radiator should mount from the top.

Does anyone have a pic of how the condenser mounts? I have tried moving this thing to many spots but you cant get it to go to far with the metal hoses on it

Has anyone found that the intercooler sits to high for the cwest front bumper? i put the bumper up to it and there is a good 3-4 inch gap from the botton of the intercooler to the bottom of the opening

I've got the Cwest bumper and find that the bumper frames the IC quite well without a gap on the bottom.

Odd as I have a gap below mine. I can lower the intercooler but then the two side mounts dont line up and the pipe that comes up on the left sits on the rad hose alot more...I am confused why this is
