Default Camaro FMIC guys, show me your grille!

I just got a new bumper because I cracked the hell out of my last one. Also, I don't think I made too much of a professional grade cutting job when it came to my bumper the last time. What are you all doing w/ your bumper/grille area? Are you cutting the whole thing out? Let me see some pics of your grilles please.

That looks nice. Was it tricky cutting all that out?

Good luck

I mounted twin 4.5" ATI intercoolers vertically.

ABeasst, do you have any more pics from the backside of those IC's? Im trying to get an idea of how you have the outlet pipe from the IC's routed.

ABeast thats a heck of an interesting idea! Would be interesting to see before and after IAT readings from the traditional mounting and then yours.

That's a pretty cool setup, beasst.

However, I think I like Westside's setup the best so far. It's in your face, but subtle all around.

I would think running those 2 intercoolers in series like that (vs. parallel like ATI intended) would create a big pressure drop.

Here's mine. I choose to not hack up my front bumper and just to run some custom ducting from underneath the car instead. I did cut the area behind my fog lights but that is barely noticable. I'm sure if you decide to hack up your front bumper and have a gaping hole you will probably get the max cooling available to your FMIC. But mine works just fine at keeping my IAT's nice and cold
