Those are really nice. I've mostly seen them in the hot-rod crowd, but have been scoping out possible locations for a VX install. Keep us posted on your install and experience with it! ;Do;

A custom braket will be made and mounted behind the bumper, getting good air flow from the holes either side of where the front licience plate would be....that's where they were talking about mounting it.
I like the idea of fittings being on one side(most go in one end and come out the other) for a easyer install. They do have the same cooler with fittings on both ends.....but does'nt come with fittings, witch cost about 5-$10 each. So this coming with them is a pretty good deal at $45.

that might actually be a feasible cooler to mount in front of the radiator. Not sure if you'll have enough room though behind the grille.

Not sure exactly where it's gunna go, when I bring it in to get installed we'll put it in the best spot possible.
I'm gathering a bunch of parts to do all this at once, cooler with a trans flush, guages, sway bars and other stuff I hav'nt even thought about yet....not in a huge rush.

Not 100% sure, but the spot in the front bumper behind the bulge of the cladding might be ok if you could deflect airflow from the two front license plate holes towards it. This is where some people have mounted a 6,000 lb winch so it should be big enough!

Seconds on behind the front cladding. Just make sure there's room around it for radiant cooling (and nothing to melt against it) for when you're not moving.
You can find these coolers at just about any shop that has hot-rod and performance accessories, like Jegs or Performance Auto.
