To me, the wheels compliment it.

I like it the way it is, sticking out like a sore thumb. My car is far from a sleeper, might as well broadcast the SC'er set up.

I wouldnt say it looks too outlandish, or is overly loud...but fair enough.

There should be a few pics of it without the cover on in my build thread.....

From the picture it looks like the bottom does not clear.

Nice shots, I think the intercooler is fine but it doesn't match the rest of the car's theme with the black kidney grills and smoked taillights.
