    Hey All,

    I just received my Whitezilla GV Grille and wanted to know which FMIC fills the gap 'appropriately' if that makes sense. I've been looking at the CS large core w/Crashbar but it seems it dips a little under the front bumper.

    Also, I still may go TMIC after much reading but the GV grille will look sad with no intercooler behind it :( lol

    Literally any fmic core will be fine. What looks dumb is the oem crash bar. Either gotta paint it or replace it. You can fit a large core and retain the oem crash bar but you’ll have to chop it up.
    Look at treadstone tr8, mishimoto Z line, or the big S line one. Those will definitely fill it up. I have the mishimoto Z line myself and will be installing the GV grill soon.

    TR8 with aftermarket crash bar will do you well
