Default FMIC with stock bumper

Is it possible? I have fog lights and the headlight washers and wouldn't mind cutting the inside of the bumper for an intercooler just wondering if it's possible or if anyones done it thanks let me know

A4 owners have been running FMIC's behind the stock bumper for over 10 years. There are a few kits out there that fit and are designed for the k03/K04, Racetec is one of those kits.

They do look legit, I know someone who is selling a mishimoto kit for only 400 and the the intercooler of it is 27"x6"x2.5", 2.5" which isn't that big but its better then side mount, do you think that would fit? I wouldnt mind cutting some innerplastic bumper.

The one in the link is for a B6 A4 which has way more room behind the stock bumper then the B5 A4.
