Front bumper for intercooler...who makes them

Hey all,
My Greddy twin turbo install is almost done!!!
Since aftermarket has not quite gotten up to speed with intercoolers that mfgr. will sell without buying the entire setup, my mechanics custom made the intercooler. The problem that I am seeing is that the mount is behind the front bumper and in front of the radiator.
I am hoping that some of you know of some nice looking front bumpers that have an opening in the middle. I did a quick search and did not come up with anything that I am looking for.
If you can help me out and let me know who makes them, please let me know. Any pictures you have will be greatly appeciated.

Once the car is done, I will post some pics of the install. We are also custom making the exhaust as there are no aftermarket exhausts that are big enough for a turbo set up. We are using Borla mufflers.

Re: Front bumper for intercooler...who makes them

top secrets should be nice along with greddys....i think impul might have a center opening but probably not sufficient enough for an intercooler

Thanks for some of the posts.
Chaos,
I don't think that this is a huge problem but something that I want to correct. As for the exhaust, especially with turbos, the larger the diameter of the exhaust pipes, the less back pressure on the turbos. Anytime you can flow more air, intake or exhaust, the better.

Re: Front bumper for intercooler...who makes them

I have seen the Top secret bumper [not the Greddy] it sits to low for the streets and curbs around here .Im haven a SC install soon and Im going to cut the bumper open between the openings that are already there .dollar99 has done this with his coupe , and it dont look to bad .Save the bucks till some thing else come out that doesnt hang down to low

Couldnt afford it when young...gonna play when Im old
