Do I need to modify my engine bay to fit this kit?

This is a universal kit, so routing depends on your specific intake and cooler placement. Test-fit all pieces and mock your layout before final clamping to verify clearance with your radiator, fans, and other engine bay components.

Are the clamps stainless steel or zinc-plated?

Clamp material isn't specified in the product data. Confirm with our support team before installing if you're working in a harsh environment where corrosion is a concern.

Can I paint or polish the aluminum tubing?

Yes. The aluminum takes standard automotive prep and paint or polish finish. Light sanding and a primer coat will give you the best adhesion if you're painting.
