I will be having the Intercooler upgraded, the MKII front grill doesn't quite have the appeal the previous models have with the intercooler behind it...Just wondering if anyone else with a MKII has any cool ideas to have the intercooler showing itself off? I have considered cutting out the bottom half of the grill and sanding it back but I'm not sure how it would look. I know you can buy an aftermarket f6 bumper to fit the XR headlights but I do prefer to keep the original xr6 bumper.Any ideas and or photos would be awesome!

sr71 Member 52 Member For: 11y 2m 6d Posted 12/08/14 01:12 PM Share Posted 12/08/14 01:12 PM Maybe highly polished??I've wondered if the Mk2 front is ideal for cooling because of the larger opening. It is larger than Mk1, FH and FPV. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88705-fg-mkii-intercooler-appeal/#findComment-1492089 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus a shinier (or all black) cooler.Quick chop but I'm not convinced Edited 12/08/14 03:20 PM by -Stever- 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88705-fg-mkii-intercooler-appeal/#findComment-1492116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
