c,
I have the punishment fmic kit on my car right now, but the core isn't exactly mounted properly. It's not gonna fall off, but it looks kinda sketchy. So I'm just wondering how everyone else mounts their cores. pictures would be awesome but descriptions are also appreciated.
 
i used brackets to secure it to the frame on the bottom, i have brackes from menaards to hold itup top i cut them actually and used screws and nuts to hold it up in place. i would post pics but i dont want to tear the car apart right now.
 
Duct tape core to outside of front bumper, maybe a couple zip ties for good measure. But seriously, all the FMIC kits I have used come with tabs to bolt/screw it directly to the core support.
 
oliver- ah yes, duct tape and zip ties. there used to be a saying with all the car guys around here, honda bodies are held together by zip ties, so are dsm engines
