97 bumper swap and hahn FMIC

[baxsom]

I was looking around trying to find pics of a 97 bumper and a hahn fmic before i do my bumper swap on my 96 gs.

i would like to see pics of the bumper after cutting to get an idea of how much i am going to have to take off.

i suspect that it is the entire air ducting behind the center hole

i found a lot of posts talking about it but either the pics were dead or none at all

thanks in advance

cool
it looks like there is some of the inner lip left
so that helps a lot
i am not so sure i am going to make the hole any larger like the top of yours
but at least i know i dont have to trim the inner air ducts flat against the cover now

if you mount the ic right you wont have to cut much if any of the bottom pary to the hole. this is not a hrc ic but i think you will understand flyboy.

thanks for all of the replies
when i put the IC on the 96 bumper the way the lip was i had to hack and slash a lot to even up existing damage and IC clearing
i didnt want to go into a new bumper blind

no problem. you will have to hack the top part of the bumper a little. took me about 5 mins with a dremal.
