Project "Big Country" - Front Bumper Fab

Thanks Chuzie! No onboard air for now - but definitley a future upgrade. My original plans were to keep the explorer AC comp and use it, but it interfered with having to lower my PS pump reservoir for hood clearance.

I used the stock mustang set-up on the air filter as far as the hose and MAF so haven't really thought about the heat issue, but see what you are saying. On a good note, there are no inner fenders and the underside is open (could be bad though when the tire throws debris up). I'm sure there will be some shielding done in the future.

The wiring has gone together very nicely so far. We used Ryan's harness and everything has fallen into place nicely, but I may be jinxing myself for when we turn the key for the first time. I have heard people say that some of his harnesses have random defects that can be a PITA to trouble shoot. Hopefully I'm not one of those!
