Default Intercooler mounting...

Hey guys, as y'all may know, I'm doing a turbo build now and I am coming to an end on the motor side of things. Anyways, I am wondering if anyone has a good solution to mounting an intercooler. As of now, I have an oversized intercooler that is just barely fitting behind my bumper and I am wondering how to anchor it there. Since I can't weld such soft aluminum for any bracketry, I was wondering if it would be possible to put some sort of strap setup around the intercooler and through those straps perpendicular to them making sort of an h shape and possibly have that piece not only go through the straps on the intercooler but also around the center post behind the bumper...I'm sorry if this is unclear I can try to draw it out in paint or something if anybody needs me to. However, my question is, any other ideas??? Thanks in advance boys/girls!!!

BTW: if you have any pictures of your own intercooler mount setup post them up! Anything is appreciated!!!

Yea sorry my explanation was so poor, the best I can do is take pictures when I get home but that won't be till sat. What do you mean drilled holes into your front brace? Do you have any pictures? Thanks again in advance
