I got pulled over one night cause my tails went out on me. Cops walk around every inch of the car looking up and down. One of them stays at the front and he's just staring at the recirculation hose and intercooler and the look on his face was priceless.
The other cop was checking out inside and asked what all the gauges were about... lol
Heres what my 93' looked like when I had it all cut up. I'm rolling with a 97' front now... stealth...
It looked funny like that so I cut the bottom out.

hmm
From what I have read about painting intercoolers black for the stealth look it holds heat in, which lowers the efficiency of the intercooler... I am not sure of the percentage decrease(?), but it kind of makes sense that this would be true in some form. Of course another idea would be a black mesh screen...

Here's a camera phone shot of my front after cutting the bars out, took it tonight while we were doing some work on it. Curry, you should look into mounting the intercooler higher so it doesn't hang out below the bumper like that.
