Default HDI Front mount question?

Looking at buying this,

https://www.vipmotorsport.co.uk/shop...ntercooler-Kit

nothing on the pic shows any cross member/bumper carrier, the pic looks like just a generic picture. Anyone know if the kit comes with one?

I've just bought one of these and it doesn't come with one it just comes with some brackets (see pic).
This actually suited be better than having the front support panel as I would have had to cut it up to fit on my Foz anyway.

The bumper uses the standard support/fixings and yes there are mounting points on the intercooler.
