If the bumper support doesn't bolt right back in there than it will not be getting direct airflow because you can't see the bumper support through the grill opening can you? I'm guessing this will ride just below it and get a clean ram-air effect through the opening.

Looks like that car is JDM spec. So its possible that snorkle was also made in Japan.

i would not put this on a street car. Looks like you need to remove the bumper reinforcement beam.
It definitely need to remove the RE-BAR. Guys, whoever's getting this snorkel, just make sure you don't crash your car.

Not only would it not be good for a street car if you have to remove the bumper bar, but also I doubt it would offer little, if any benefit over a normal snorkel that doesn't get thin over the radiator (e.g. J's that requres the Type-V hood).

Damn that thing is huge , but no intake is worth removing the front bumper bar for IMO.
