ok. yep on a 1g. got all the stuff out to start fab to find out my radiator support is bent. luckly we got a parts car and im in the process of switching them. the intercooler is a spearco 216. i big guy! alot of cutting a swearing to come in the next week!

I have put one in seveal 1gs and never put the support back in. The FMIC kind of supports the bumper and you can still bolt it on top an the sides.

It is a better idea to leave it but it is more timely to toss it. I guess I would figure if my car was hit infront it would probably be totalled anyhow.

I was cleaning the garage and still have my old bumper support (from what is now swifty's car) if anyone wants it.

I'd say cut the crash beam, if you do get in an accident and don't have one, you will regret it. I wish mine had one in my wreck.

Yeah I cut mine in half.. http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/99/l_383425cd3607410488eed36bbb65f86a.jpg

JMFabrications has a nice front bumper mount that totally eliminates the crash beam, so no matter what size intercooler you have it will fit! down side, you get into an accident, bye bye car ;-(
