I could swear I've seen a car or two here that has a chrome front bumper that has been opened up for the oil cooler inlet for a trunk mounted cooler.
Anyone have photos or details they can share about it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Kev |

What I did years ago when I added a front Mazda oil cooler, was remove the rubber plugs, and I cut the fiberglass front panel and did not cut the bumper itself. More than enough air moved through. I guess you could cut a little material, but as I remember when I had the front license plate it covered some of the new opening anyway, so I am not sure it would be worth the effort. Jim
