Did you cut the metal impact absorber, or are you trying to make it fit without cutting that? Ill have to dig up some pictures of mine for you.

What bumper are you trying to get your IC to fit with? Here is a pic of how the cold side piping is ran on mine. I dont have the passenger side pics

The hot side I have the pipe coming from the top of the engine bay, down in front of my altenator, then up underneath the lower radiator brace into the IC. No I dont have my ac anymore.

Mine was notched like the above, the difference is that I made a skid guard that bolts to the bottom or the rad support and to the intercooler that way it doess not move around.....

I literally ran the saw right down the middle of the front metal bumper. whole length. I left the piece of metal that sits flat and drilled some holes in the front to get the bolts in and dropped down the holes so I could still get a wrench on them. Ill see if I have pics. Worked like a dream and bumped the fmic up perfect.

before


after.
