im not sure exact dimensions of the ic, its 20 something long maybe 12 or 13 tall and 2 1/2 thick, thats just a guess not quite for sure

The d2's were $800
front lca were $180
blox lca were $100
hardrace toe arms were $80
hardrace camber kit front and rear were $280
Extended studs were $60
stock trailing arms blasted and painted
stock spindels front and rear blasted and powdercoated
Then I just bought new ball joints and wheel bearings

got my shock towers fixed










Now for my next problem, shock towers look to clean! Ill either have to clean the rest of the bay or dirty up the shock towers (sounds much easier!) More to come after I get this back together

if you mean you dont want to cut into your bumper support you'll more than likely have to.. the bigger the intercooler the better IMO just not ungodly fkn huge..
