Hit up "soulcontroller" on here, as we just did his HRC FMIC install, and if i remember, he has the blitz front. No mods to the actual bumper at all, but you do have to hack up the 5mph support on the car itself quite a bit for the FMIC..

I just installed a Howell FMIC too. It looks bad with the original bumber, all cramped up. I'm thinking on buying a Bomex body kit, I know the front bumper looks like a bench or duck, but I like it. It looks good and I think it might fit. Anyone know? TS

I have the blitz, and we had to hack off a couple inches on the middle opening. Took the 5mph bar and the reinforcement bar off. We also had to cut some of the bumper off on the driver side opening for the intercooler pipe.

Mine fit fine, but i ditched the 5MPH bumper a long time ago. I'm now running an "interbumper". Keeps the air charge cool, and takes 5mph impacts (although it would be much more expensive..)
