Default anyone elses intercooler piping push out on the bumper?

I just put a RevHard 2C kit on my EG, the intercooler piping pushes my front bumper out and it looks like ****. Any way to fix this? The piping touches the bumper right under the side vents.

Trim the bumper back.

you can grind down the back of the vents and bumper as far as possible. If your intercooler is sitting back all of the way this should work, I am running 2.5" in and out of mine and it clears, barely but it does.

I have the same problem with my Revhard piping.

From what I can tell, that section of piping just doesn't fit the car very well. Sucks.
