Ok well I took a test spin today and one of the intercooler hoses popped off. I didn’t have it seated good enough. I was about a mile away from home. Came Back dropped the skid plate and reseated. question: does driving it for a bit with the hose off on one side pose any damage? Thanks haven’t...

Thanks for the help here guys. I did make progress this morning and honestly not sure what changed since last night (maybe too many beers) Looking good now!

Not sure what I did last night, maybe too many garage beers but i realized I had this wired wrong. Got it figured out now!

Ok hoping someone has a suggestion on why I can’t get my dogs to turn on from the aux 1 switch. I have two diode dynamics fogs plugged into a harness I got from 4x4 leds. I am trying to wire the fogs to aux 1 and the back light to aux 2. Then there’s the ground. No lights come on when wired...

Ok well fellas need some help. Good news is I got the inter cooler in. I also got the dv8 bumper on. I am now stuck on wiring fogs and light bar I have two fogs plugged into a harness I got from 4x4 leds. I am trying to wire the fogs to aux 1 and the back light to aux 2. Then there’s the...

Ha ended up using torque wrench and that did it. Progress so far

Well I started my upgrades and already ran into an issue. I cannot get the plastic bumper bolts off. Tried the ratchet , drill, hammer drill, driver drill. They will NOT budge. Any ideas? I have the correct 15 MM socket.

I’ll post some before after pics later this week when I got everything in

I was browsing wheels and tires earlier ha

LOL man don't tempt me

Haha exactly. After looking at the videos to install, I figured hell if the bumper and skid plate is already off and I am replacing the tow hooks with other brackets, and the intercooler is just sitting there I may as well swap it. Thanks to the individual who recommended that !

I actually did some searching and found some good threads on the process to do this. There are some good videos as well. I ended up purchasing the ce-p intercooler. Should be here FRiday!

Ok you guys have convinced me lol. Looks like cpe is a good one? Looks like an easy install

Thanks both. So if I were to get a new intercooler. What should I get and are there a decent set of instructions to swap? Again I know how to use basic tools etc but not a very experienced car guy (but want to get experience)

What benefits would I get and how difficult is that process?

Thank you all! I am a novice at this stuff so appreciate the info

I am going to install a DX8 competition bumper and I have read that I need to cut tow hooks or just remove them and replace with other skid plate brackets. I also read that these plates hold the intercooler in place. So how do I remove the tow hooks and install the replacement brackets without...

Awesome thanks! I have the plastic bumper , no sensors or fogs. I will be installing fogs with the dx8 though. I read I have to cut the tow hooks as well. Is this true or can I just remove them?

How did the front bumper install go? I just bought it and looking to get some tips on the install. Thanks

I just purchased this bumper and can't wait to install. For those who installed I have some questions: - Do I really need to cut off the tow hooks or can I just remove? - Is there any option to add shackle hooks to this bumper later? - I bought the lights and wiring harnesses and I have a...
