Get access to the area shown below by removing the top screws and wheel well screws of the bumper enough so that it can sit on the ground. Using a jack on the driver’s side is suggested since it helps the bumper sit lower.

Update: I emailed the guy, he confirmed, this is one of his only parts that you dont have to remove the bumper. Also, in the directions, I didnt see the crash bar re installed in the pics so asked about that as well. It goes back in, it just isnt in the final pics. I'm gonna order one tomorrow I think and give it a shot. They look pretty big in the ford cars, so they have alot of reviews. From what I can see, rain isnt a big deal, but you will suck up bugs into your airbox. Maybe that's what the plastic cover was originally for?

Yeah I was reading about this company on the Mustang forum. Like you stated this product is well received on that platform.

Did you notice these are 3D printed? Probably made to order.

That's why I posted a paragraph from it. It is only covering the heat exchanger a little, at least from what I can tell from the picture, and i dont think that little bit would effect much at all. I dont have it in my hands yet, I'm going to order it, probably friday and find out and get some hands on experience.

If it can be done with removing the bumper I will order.

Subscribed to hear the initial install/fitment and potential performance thoughts...

In for results, looks like a cool idea!

Hey kids. It goes in with just removing the top plate and not the bumper. It takes some Tetris skills but possible.

A nice piece for the money

Well, it looks like quite the piece to ‘Tetris’. Hopefully I’ll get this in tomorrow. Do you have any special advice to share?

[6spdhyperblue]

Yeah it’s patience, pulling on the bumper, then seating it into the rubber around the headlight. You can reach in from the air filter and run your arm down behind the headlight to get the rubber seated to the outside of the scoop. Also unbolt the top of the bar so you can push it down while getting the scoop in. Once in you put it back. Then bolt the scoop to it

Again I want to say it now, thanks 6SHB!!

Did you get your Tetris piece seated going through the top today as you had hoped, like 6SHB did? Additional thoughts??
