Message	: I started working on installing on FMIC yesterday and so far have got it to fit up to the car. It was a bit of the pain as you have to trim the following : 1) Bumper Brace : 2) Bumper Brace Bracket : 3) Fog Light Housings : I did see if I could fit my dual pop with the FMIC. And the simple answer yes but you have to : 1) Relocate the oil cooler (you should anyways) : 2) Remove the cooler fan on the condenser : 3) You can either replace the air filters with something not as wide or use new rubber connector houses that have a slight bend in them. : A point to be made the FMIC is not completely done for this car it just at about 70% of it. We already cut off around 2" from the air passage. The FMIC sits at an angle hangs quite low and can be issue of being damaged if the car is completely slammed down. Basically the bottom of the FMIC lines up with the bottom of the fascia. : In the case of my fascia I am covering up 4 rows on top and 3 rows on bottom it is not an idealy situation. I may look at using another FMIC or putting in some speed holes for better breathing. : Also this is not my FMIC its actually "None's" mine is polished but I don't think that is going to do any good anyways. : : : : Life is just a big game, make sure you get some playing time
