I suspect it would. I have the same question.
Honestly, at this price I'm willing to buy it anyway. Any bumper trimming needed would be very minimal on the inside edge of the lower lip and not visible once you have mesh in place.

i'm sure he would have to test fit one on a 225 with retrofit 3.2 bumper...unusual
circumstance that would affect only a handful.
its a tight fit with the 3.2...since the lower openings are deeper, so like yosemyTT says, more than likely.

Nice! very well made kit and a price that can't be beat!
Beats custom fabricating hands down, specially now that I realize how much unused hoses, pipes and clamps I have sitting in garage buckets just to get something to work. Damn, I should have waited :/

And here' s achart of a stage 3 180 with a single SMIC and My car with the FMIC. Both starting out at about the same horsepower. Guess who's losing 20 very expensive stage 3 horsepower to heat?
