i installed my intercooler behind. in between the grill and the radiator. . there a gap between this two. just cut what you need it will fit nicely.

i like it where it is it looks wicked. . .

i like this one its diffrent but i like he should move the number plate though lol

yeah that licence plate would be blocking almost all the airflow

Behind the grill, it only takes a stone to hole the cooler, then your engine could injest the ally cooler bits as well as any dust, dirt or water.
Why risk destroying your engine.

sssute makes a good point. but it still looks wicked there.. is that one of those ebay radiators. how well did it fit? does it sit high. did you have to cut anything to make it sit right?

yeah its a ebay jobby its the one out of my white ute theres a few more pics of it in my photos, surprising the bonnet still clears it. i did think about puting it behind the grill but after doing this on the other ute i feel that it blocks the radiator way too much and it limits the airflow not to mention the radient heat from the rad is very high causing the cooler to become heated itself. so in short its definetly going to go down where it is its just how low is the question, but thanks for all the comments as they are valued answers

if you put it down that low, it will just be an interheater. Where does the air on the other side go??

I agree with the others. I put mine behind the grille, because I don't get on very well with police officers.

the panel behind it is slightly sloped rearwards (about 75degrees) and has approx 2inchs gap between the cooler and the panel.

as for cops the ville severly lacks them

id rather have no intercooler than have one there, or visible anywhere on the front.

but if it has to be intercooled. hide it behind the grille.

i like it where it is. kinda makes it obvious. i like it

That's where I was thinking of putting an oil cooler once, but it would need a couple of layers of strong mesh if it was going there.
