With due respect to all, most cut-outs I see for up front oil coolers (not water radiator coolers) are way too large with strips being cut out of the bumper and valance. Pic is my cut out of valance only, with air flowing into the "frunk" through the slots cut by joining some of the holes in the body - can see through the screen. Never have a heating problem with my 911 2.7 installed.

Side note just measured Danny's painted bumper that actually looks like its is heavy crhomed underneath and that is 18Ga. |

I agree it does look better and if the price is right, I would be interested in getting my chrome bumper modified. |
