one of the FMIC vendors had a .pdf file to download with installation instructions for their FMIC
basically
remove front bumper
install FMIC
replace fromt bumper

so this is exactly what you need

sorry i do not remember which vendor

There are hidden screws under the plastic wheel trims. Take them off. remove the hidden screws. remove the front grill. there are one screw each side, take them off. jack up the car and put it on stands (for safety) and there are few screws along the bottom. take them. i think that should be it

Forge has the instructions. I just printed on Monday as my intercooler is arriving tomorrow. Cannot seem to find again though. It was one of the retailers websites, not forge itself
