front bumper mounting over intercooler - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

now that my front mount intercooler is in place on my s14 , the metal bumper will not fit. i was able to mount the plastic bumper cover , but that provides no support if anything were to hit the front of my car. I was just wondering what others have done for support or ways to make it fit on.

Cut part of it out...i usually do the enitre back half to each of the side supports

Trim, mount, trim, but more cut off wheels, trim, mount.

Like 5280 said, you need to mark and cut or notch your re-enforcement beam. Some people just cut the center of their beams out, but that is not recommended.
