Active has top quality products. I've modded both my E36 M3s with them back when I lived in Miami.

I even bought one of their shop cars (supercharged E36 M3s) back in 2003. That wa s when the E46 M3 had come out and I was putting up a fight with my old schoold E36.

Say hello to Mike for me

The Image below shows the trim that was removed next the to the Intercooler. The Black Plastic Trim is the only part that needs to be trimmed to allow for proper fitment of the intercooler.
