The cold air should be coming out at the bottom lol. Unfortunately that would mean longer pipe routing as you'd have to cross the pipes over top to bottom. Tbh it makes bugger all difference as the air will go wherever the turbo is pushing it to, you're better off using the shortest piping possible.

Bumper off is four bolts (assuming you don't have any lower tabs left). Loosen the cammed plastic guides just inside the front of the arches. Then up behind the chassis end plate on each side are 3 nuts, the two diagonally opposed nuts are the ones you want, 10mm iirc. Removing the arch liners is essential, washer bottle helps too, but you'll still need a deep socket and a variety of extensions to do them quickly and easily. Oh, don't forget to uplug the fogs lol.

God you make life hard work!!

Bumper is 2 bolts on PH3s for some reason, 1 on each side under the chassis legs immediately under the headlights. Undo those, remove the bottom covers from arch liners and pull the liners out from behind the bumper lip in the wheel well and slide off. If the bumper was fitted correctly last time round, you don't need to loosen the cammed plastic guides. Oh and if you have fogs, unplug them as there isn't much slack in the cables.

Don't need to take the washer bottle out. Jack the car up (or if you have small arms, don't bother) and just put your arm right up from the bottom in front on the washer bottle. 10mm spanner is easier to loosen then off then just take them off by hand. They don't rust so don't need ratcheting all the way off thankfully as there isn't much room up there!
