s14, sr20det, stock front bumper?

[AJs14]

Hey all. I heard mixed stories and I've searched. When I do the sr20 swap, can I use the factory front bumper with the stock intercooler? Do I need to get an aftermarket front bumper if I plan to use an aftermarket ic? Or stock bumper with custom ic piping for an aftermarket ic? Thanks.

yeah youll have to cut the front bumper most likely
nothing a dremel cant fix :D

use the piping the kit provides

all FMICs will require SOME modification

Europe and Australia had the same front bumper as the US on the S14 along with the stock SR sidemount IC. No problems there.

But an FMIC will require trimming, its just a fact of life.
