Default A2A Intercooler fit for '15+ Nismos?

I'd really like to install an s/c kit in my 2015 Nismo, and was part of the plan when I purchased it, but I can't seem to find pics or descriptions of anyone who has done it. Google was no help. I found a YouTube video of a 2016 Nismo that had an A2A kit, but it was just a 35-second dyno pull with no other information. I don't want to put the guy's name here, but I'm fairly certain he's a member of this board.

When I examine things behind my bumper, I'm seeing all sorts of potential problems to fit the intercooler. There's a vertical black brace right in the center in front of the radiator (probably on all Zs, so maybe not an issue), and a "Nismo Performance Damper" that's the same length as the crash bar, and sits just above and behind the oil cooler -- with 3" between it and the radiator. Part of the problem is I have no idea where exactly the intercooler sits. Does it go in front of these obstructions? Doesn't seem like there's enough room for that.

At this point it looks like the crash bar is the least of my worries.

Are there different installation issues with respect to Nismos? Are there any '15+ Nismo owners having unique difficulties especially with the intercooler? Suggestions? Smaller Mishimotos?

I'd hate to ditch the idea altogether, but may have to if it involves too much custom fabrication.

Thanks!
