pic borrowed off here (thread called "lets see your s2 rs turbo's") looks like he got same cooler and the bumper still looks like it hasnt been messed with. so assume he's made it fit further out, added spacers to the mounting bolts. but only thing with that is the line around the front wheel arch.

i fitted all 3 rad, cooler and I/C same as what you've got and i can confirm from your pics your rad isnt pushed back far enough, the minium gap you can have is 1cm from the turbo to the rad, get everything off including the rad and route the loom backwards off the crossmember and then your rad will go back abit. Easy stuff.

I put some washers between bumper and car chassis and that solved my problems with airtec ic / rad. I cant take pictures now because my car is in winter storage but later in this month.
