I've been pondering this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UNIVERSAL...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5ae91cc89b

Uiversal Kit(s)

Turbo in the top inlet, cold air out the bottom. Should be able to stealth style install it (with some sneaky bumper cutting along with some crashbar modification) and should be able to keep the fogs.

Lack of Money, a garage, a ramp and time is the b@stard though :(

Always better to install single pass. Less flow drop, but more intricate pipe work. You can also do a single pass with standard pipework and use a return pipe, so you're able to use pancake pipe route.

Will see if I can get a pic up

I'm in a similar situation as Lee, wanting a FMIC but keeping my fogs.
Do you (nd-photo.nl) know if the car above has the crash bar removed or if its still in place?
This looks like the ideal route for me to take, if the crash bar is still in place that is.

I've got a twin pass fitted and totally stealthed behind a standard Toledo bumper and fogs fitted and no bumper cutting was required for me

I'd say you'd be able to just dremel out some bits in the crash bar for it to sit flush...to be fair I think it's more a case of trial and error. Or just go for the twin pass, I was considering it but was suggested the single pass.

Hmm, I've also been told to go for the single pass coolers.
The one you posted seems ideal for not losing your fogs and keeping things neat.
I'll probably pick one of them up.
