Picked this up last night for my blob wrx. Looked abit worse for wear. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...3e0ed40c8f.jpg

Wire brush. Sanding. Keyed up and fresh lick of paint worked wonders. Ill strap it on friday

Are you going to sort all the bent and crushed fins? Probably more important than a lick of paint.

I will sort what i can but not as bad as they look in pic. Ive seen alot worse and doubt there is many out there that are 100% perfect

Top Tip

A standard lollipop stick is the same size as the gap between the fins.
Push the lollipop from the under side of the IC and pull out from the top.
:idea:
:D

^^^^^^^^That's a great tip Troops,love little details that are great ideas.Brilliant 😊
& also a good excuse to have a feast.

I spent ages straightening out my fins on my STI intercooler. Worth doing though, then a light respray.

great tip mate ill give it a try. The white lollipop sticks or the wood icecream ones?

Straight wooden lollie sticks

this intercooler now on ebay?

yes mate ive decided to sell to fund other parts

Lol sound like me.

But then i changed my mind again and its on the car and had map tweak. :thumb:

Hows it look fitted?

Nice, not sure if black surround looks better or not.
