started fitting the front mount aka 'the beast'

so a few shots of how it going

cut the bottom of the latch bracket



cut away some of the panel to help bring the intercooler as far back as possible







cut an access out and drilled into the frame (where the bumper fixes on to) to fix the intercooler on to







offered up crash bar and marked and cut it



and fitted



offered the bumper on and gave it a little trim, but still needs a bit more, but that will come when i get the hoses on.



thats all the main work done for now, bumper shouldnt take long to finish once its on  :smiley:

Cheers guys always happy to hear feedback  :smiley:

Can't do much at the mo as some pipes are out of stock but decided to trim the bumper down last night, as it would foul the intercooler pipes

Before


After


Bad pic I know!! Decided to cut a flat surface rather than a circle for the pipe work so I could still put the mesh in without it looking like I gave the bumper to a butcher to chop!!
