Do I need clamps or hose clamp hangers for installation?

This kit contains the piping and connectors only. You'll need to source clamps separately to secure the lines to your engine bay — standard worm-gear hose clamps sized for 2.50" diameter work well.

Can I paint or polish these pipes?

The black anodized finish is ready to use as-is. If you want a different look, light wet-sanding followed by your choice of paint or clear coat will work — just test-fit everything before committing to any finish changes.

What if the kit doesn't route exactly how I need it?

Since this is universal, your specific intercooler placement and turbo outlet location determine how you'll arrange the pipes. Measure twice before bending or cutting — aluminum can be reshaped, but it's easier to plan the layout upfront.
