It's essentially two poles widening the opening in the stock bumper. It's mainly for those that want more air but want to stay with the stock look.



That's Mahjiks car you should pm him for better pics.

its a really impressive, low cost mod. we did it to a tracked FD with the 94 oem bumper and it widened the mouth enough to let air hit the greddy M style FMIC, and a noticeable 4-9degree drop in air temps. but it did give the lip a funny look since it "scoops" air in.

im sure it can be made to look pretty but its mostly for performance purposes(that want to retain the stock look)

Even with the fogs in place, you get a substantial amount of air in as compared to stock.

I'm pretty sure Ihor/rotary experiment seven was the first person to experiment with this back around 2000 or so. Maybe he'll chime in.....
