I bolted the intercooler to the bumper frame first. Your pipes must be just connected and no more as it sits alot higher than that.

Look here it shows you how to fit it.

You have to cut the number plate bracket off your bumper bar also a bit of each side as it stops the pipes running to the intercooler. Have you already grinded a little notch out your passenger sides inner wing?.

Have you got a set of instructions?

The core sits far higher and fits to the cross member.
I put two brackets to the bottom and they took a slight bend.
Where are you located?
PS. If you look in the Projects Forum there are several photographs which will show you clearly how the core locates.
