Does the JDM Fmic bolt on without cutting?

I did quick search and came up with nothing. I know they really don't have the bumper support but I don't want to hack anything on my car.

So my question is..does it require you to hack the bumper support to install it?

The stock bumper support is not used. You would just have to drill two holes to mount the brackets for the bumper. Two bolts screw on to the bumper on each side and they you have the 10mm's that go to the fenders.

Not to thread jack, but would you be able to retain the stock IC hoses for the JDM IC?

You need the stock bumper support, but as GW said it needs cut.

I believe you can cobble it together with the stock IC hoses by cutting and flipping them around.

You're somehow confusing the original poster's question with how a JDM bumper is fitted. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif He's asking if the USDM bumper needs to be cut to fit the JDM intercooler.
