Default FMIC Procharger help

Imma run my FMIC tomorrow on my 2000 trans am. I already have the front of the car off. My question is, do you remove all the black plastic pieces underneath? Do I put em back on after I run the IC piping? Do I modify em at all? Thanks. Pics of finished setups would be helpful.

Are you using the ProCharger front mount intercooler kit? Bob

seems like the cover will b extremely flimsy with out the plastic pieces or the foam support? I guess I'll see when I start running this stuff. so the only thing supporting the cover will b the 3 bolts on each side and the plastic plugs on the front under the hood?
