ETS 3.5'' FMIC install?

Well I just recieved my ETS 3.5'' FMIC a couple of days ago and I want to install it this weekend after work. I searched but can't seem to find pics for the install......bunch of red x's is all I see. I'm the type of guy who needs lots of pics to make sure I'm doing this right. Anyone have some pics of a FMIC install, any help would be great

Thanks bro! that was a big help.
With this and the bumper removal thread I think I have everything I need. Any tips or anything I need to know before I start on the install? Any tricks to make the install easy?

I think its probably been the most self explanatory part I've put on my car. I did my 4 incher in 1.5 hours and half of that time was spent looking for random bolts I took off and rolled away. I had to rush out of the house so I have a boost least somewhere but I think I didn't tighten down the IC piping at the intake manifold (I put UICP/LICP on at the same time)

i feel pretty dumb. i can't seem to get mine to fit. the passenger side hits the AC lines and won't let the tab mount up to the radiator support.

i'd say this thing is far from fitting like OEM. LOL. here are some pictures. maybe someone can find something off?






this bracket does seem to be not where it should be. the top mounting tab was bent WAY forward when i got it (used). i've drawn the approx angle it was at with a red line. also, the bottom of the IC hits the stock tow hook that's attached to the radiator support. maybe this isn't an ETS??:
