943, FMIC install and cutting bumper up Posted by 95ESi, Jan-15-01 07:54 AM I just realized something...does the bumper need to be cut up to fit the fmic from the star stage2?? | |

944, RE: FMIC install and cutting bumper up Posted by DarkOne, Jan-15-01 08:45 AM Mine didn't. it couldn't get the two lower bolts back in the bumper, but i was in no mood to fight the frickin thing, either. i got the top two in, but as far as the intercooler fitting, it's a perfect fit. No bumper cutting. | |

945, RE: FMIC install and cutting bumper up Posted by 95ESi, Jan-15-01 10:19 AM Oh, that's cool...no need to cut anything. *PHEW* I was prepared to wear all my safety gear again (paintball mask) LOL! | |

946, RE: FMIC install and cutting bumper up Posted by Jason 95 GS Turbo, Jan-15-01 10:24 AM actually, i needed to trim my bumper reinforcemnt bar just slighty to get the intercooler to fit right. it would hit the intercooler when i slid the bumper back on. I got a 95...so that should be the same, but i don't know if the talons are at all different there. I drove for quite some time without it cut, but i could never seem to get the bumper to go back on right till i trimmed it. the actualy bumper cover though, the urethane part you see actually shouldn't need cut though. just the reinforcement bar. Then again, i also have one of the first, if not the first kits that star made, so you might even have something different there. | |
