Default FMIC...
Question:

will the small straight line dent (about 1/4 inch deep) affect the FMIC's performance?

I bought this intercooler from a former TT owner.

you could try and comb them out if you like.

No. As mentioned though, if you're feeling particularly ****, you could try to brush them out.

Default not that easy...it looks like it has been impacted pretty hard....I could try though...
but my main concern is performance given that area will be concealed anyway.
