For me. I notice the BRZ front bumper already come with a little gap. so that looks just a tad bit popped out to me. I am getting my kit soon and would like to know if the piping in front would cause an issue like the one you posted. Does anybody here have that problem with alignment after the SC installation on the bumper?

I had this problem too when i first installed the kit, i played around with the inter cooler piping and fixed the clearance between the right piping and the bumper. The intercooler elbow by the driver side headlight was the main issue for me.

I'm assuming this is for the BRZ, right?

I didn't have any bumper alignment/readjusting to do during install on my FRS.

Correct, the key is to take ur time. We spent less than 5 hrs to install the whole kit and did not put the piping together correctly

Ziptying the windshield fluid to the left may also help aligning the pipes

I don't know anyone who did it at evasive. A lot of us did it ourselves nice it's the easiest FI kit ever.

i guess i'd rather not have the fitment issues that some of the guys are experiencing, if i have it done by a shop, hopefully i can avoid that. still on the fence about FI but if i were to, this is probably the kit i would use.
