Raptor Middle Bumper Opening

[MandR Automotive]

Hey guys im in the process of making a great light kit for you guys but need to know some information about the truck. The lower bumper middle opening, is there something that need that air flow from the mesh grill such as a cooler? Can anyone take pictures? I have the front bumper to create the kit but wanted to know if anything important is blocked. Thanks for your time and plan to keep making awesome products for you.

Yes ~ The intercooler is located directly behind that lower grill opening.

however it doesnt need the entire opening as the factory front license plate mount goes there. So i you made a kit that still left room for some airflow im guessing it would be fine.

The manual says to remove plate for offroading

Just a thought for us in front plate states. Perhaps a light bracket using the existing license plate holes and an integrated plate holder. Something so the plate would be "near" stock location but could be removed for offloading and promote free flow to the IC? Light bar could be aligned with the botton of the main grill and top of bumper. Or maybe just looking good in my mind............ probably could only support 20-25 " max ?

true. however the manual also tells you when using the paddle shifters to shift every 6MPH so your in 10th gear by 60..haha not everything it says is rule of law.
