It looks like there has been a lot of modifications to the upper part
of the grills metalwork.  It even looks like the plastic grill has
been pushed out just a bit to allow for the intercooler to fit. Check
out the pictures of my Turbo Coupe and you will see what I mean. 
Since I still have the flat grill I had to settle for the intercooler
as part of a grill.  Some people like it, some don't. Bottom line is
without some metal cutting it is impossible to fit the 5kt intercooler
in the grill.
