pics of fitting it, its just hanging at the moment, not plumbed in, we worked out that I need the following to plumb it in properly:
3 x 90 degree silicone elbow bends
3 x 90 degree aluminum elbow bends
1 x silicone reducer elbow (2" to 2 1/2")
This frount mount wouldnt have fitted if my car had air con as standard as the rad for that would have pushed it out. Had to cut out gap for fmic in crash bar but apart from that it was pretty easy, looks good I think.
Debating whether to have the hardpipes showing as in one of the pictures or to have the pipes behind the grills so it doesnt look too boy racer, opinons?
To hardpipe or not to hardpipe, that is the question!
Once elbows are in then I can drive it!
