hey mate
i have my oil cooler on the right side ..behind the airintake in the bumber...cant remember how many rows it is...but its most common to put either on the right or left side ..under the headlights..but there is no problem just putting it in the front as well.as long as it gets cold airstream it doesnt matter where you put it i guess.
hope you get it sorted
cheers from stefan from norway

I am aware of it just needs air, but I dont want to cut my car in to pieces or modding the bumper to make room for it. Is it possible to get a pic/drawing of how it looks????

Thats where i tried fitting it at first, but didnt like the look of it sitting there on show, looked a bit messy, and also meant id have to un-plumb it every time the front bumper was removed
