i realise that the gsi has the 'bigmouth' already there, but is the bumper physically different in any other way???
i ask becausec ive just fitted an EDS intercooler onto my LET nova, i have chopped the section out beneath the number plate, but the intercooler seems to sit flush with the bumper at the top of the ic(just beneath number plate), but the ic seems to jut out towards the bottom of the ic(ie at the base of the bigmouth area), if this makes sense?
beneath where the little strip of coloured tape normally runs, the sri bumper i have seems to cut back on itself at quite an angle, is the gsi bumper 'chunkier'??
any comparison photos at all anyone??

Have a look at the gsi pictures then the sri pictures on this site. I think that the SRi bumper is the same as the SR one. The GSi is a bit nearer to the ground. Or look at the turbos with intercoolers on and see.............

gsi is 1" lower

and the bottom section of the bumper sticks out rather than in
