Front Bumper Advice needed...

I currently just installed a front mount intercooler on my car. I had custom intercooler pipes made for my setup. The problem I am encountering now is that there in no way that the turn signal are going to go back in. The back of of the turn signal assembly is hitting my intercooler pipes. The one thing I can do is cut the lense out and somehow find a way to fasten it onto the bumper. I was wondering if anyone sold inserts that would take the place of the turn signal assembly. At this point I really do not care if the turn signals work or not. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

How far off is it? If not much, you might be able to heat up the back side of the turn signal and "form" it such that it will fit. You may not be able to get the bulb in but so long as you can still mount it, it doesn't sound like you mind

There is no way a little heat is going to deform it the amount it needs to go. I might need to try a blow torch, lol.

I wan't picturing you with a match trying to melt it... a blowtorch would be better but I didn't want to suggest that for lawsuit reasons
