cutting mouth on 92-93 bumper

I was wondering if anyone has cut out the mouth on the 92-93 bumper more for a bigger intercooler?? Kinda like the eg civics…

yes

I did, with patience and time. She came out nice.

Cutting the grill is the WORST thing I have ever done to my 92-93 bumper. You will regret it.

i dont regret cutting out a perfect fit for an intercooler at all :werd:

Redline, how did you get rid of the license plate holes in the front? Is there a stock insert for it or did you do some body work to it? And your car is pimp by the way.

I’m going to try to put the intercooler behind the grill to hide it better. But most people just cut it out.

I wish that I could’ve kept my grill. But with the size of the FMIC, I even had to get the bumper support beam cut aswell. I hated that fact. But with great accomplishments you need great sacrifices too. (sp?)
I also had no room behind the bumper because I kept my A/C and Power Steering. It was a mission.

Blackknight…Thanks for the comment. I bought those OEM lil covers at the Dealer. For like $12.00 or something like that. Another great accomplishment…

offtopic, but redline your dominican? is it fun in naples? man you should live down here, parties all the time, clubbing every weekend, naples just sounds out of place, tell me was good in naples…

I have the grill cut out on my 92-93 as well but I mean more. more cutting…??

like this

My Car isn’t even turbo but I cut it out and put black mesh grill in and it looks TIGHT!

I have an intercooler but, I like the clean un-riced look. Having your bumper grill all cut up looks retarted IMHO. Mesh, that was kinda cool back in the F&F days… :vomit: If you guys think that looks good, more power to ya. This is not directed at redline’s car, it is very nice. I just think it would look nicer with a uncut bumper.

Redline, I just noticed your car is a 4-door. Is there any particular reason why you chose the 4-door?

That civic grill doesn’t look that bad considering the fact that they hacked the shit out of it.

cause 4drs are the shit :rockon: :dance: :ohyeah:

juiced2ndgenteg…No problema, I understand. If I were able to have the grill still on her, believe me I would’ve. But some times you can’t have all that you want.

Blackknight…LOL. I chose the 4 door because she was sitting in a shopping center lot for like a month and also because I have 2 kids and believe me it is sooo much easier to let them in and out with out moving the driver seat…LOL

I think she looks sexy…LOL

There are nice clean ways to cut a bumper so that the FMIC can be seen and it can get enouph air. In my case, it came out ok.

Polska11111…LOL…You get a PLATANO DANCE for sure…LOL :dance:


nothing a dremel couldn’t take care of

lol, nothin’ wrong with the 4-door, you’d spank my ass on the street with the kids in the back.lol I really would like to have a 2nd car that was a 4-door though, the hatch comes in handy when toting stuff.

loserpunk, what color is that? looks like the color I use to have on my old teg.

My grill is cut. No way not to cut it and fit the intercooler behind it. It’s 3.5" thick so it’s already touching the hood latch support beam and the front bumper cover.
