yes, do you have access to a welder? You could do the whole thing with bolts and holes........ not to mention tubing, but ebay can take care of that too im pretty sure.

I agree. If you search around here youll find some guys that have found alternatives but the money spend on research is often the same you could have spent on a tried and true setup such as TRT's

Here is how I do mine. pull the bumper support off. Lay the IC on top of it and trace out the area that needs to be cut. then drill 2 hols for the mounting bungs and you are rollin.
