Default How much farther out does WW font bumper sit?

Trying to get an approximation or measurement, I have an intercooler I'm trying to get behind a bumper and the stocker isn't deep enough

Enough to fit an intercooler behind it , how thick is the intercooler you want to run, I'll tell you if you have to cut it or not.

the core is 3.5" thick, but its going to sit out a little instead of flush with the rad support because of some wastegate clearance, i will get an exact measurement on the wg today.

It'll fit. Just be prepared to cut. There is plenty of material to trim off the back side of the bumper and not even be noticeable from the outside.

3 inch will fit, I know that for sure. 3.5 , and sitting out a little more will hit the bumper.

I've got a 3" wide core on mine, I cut out quite a bit and could probably cut out 2" more...actuallyI'm about to trim it up a bit more when I pull it off again. It's actually more work cutting to clear the charge piping than it is to clear the FMIC itself. (mine doesn't sit fluch to the frame either because of the WG placement of my last setup)

Trimming I don't mind. I just want to make sure its not going to be farther out than the bumper.
