What do you recommend I do to mount my intercooler? There are no holes or brackets on it? My current setup doesnt work too well:

That's similar to the one i used to have for a prelude. You have to do alot of cutting on the bumper support PITA, but it fits nicely.

Forget welding...duct tape can stand up to anything. Btw, couldn't you have even waited for your car to dry from the rain? Goddamn impatient people now adays.

i used an electric grinder to grind the bumper down... it would take a long time to do it by hand. here's some more pix of my IC and piping.
