do any of you guys have to cut your bumpers in any way?

On FR bumpers you have to remove a mount on the drivers side side for where the pipework goes, but that's it.

Here's mine:

im running a cupra bumper..but not a cupra intercooler..

its a twin pass one so outlet/inlet are same side..so hope my bumper wont need trimming.

The Cupra has the 'pancake' pipe as standard, which I think is replaced with a better flowing pipe on most setups, not sure if that requires a mount altering or not.

Yeah you've got to cut away the same bit on the Cupra bumper as you do on the FR bumper

For the outlet pipe.
