We designed our intercooler so that there is some space between the top of the intercooler and the bumper. You still need some sort of airflow to the radiator.
When running an aftermarket radiator such as Koyo the need for air is not as much compared to the stock radiator.
With that said you do not want the intercooler shoved all the way up into the bumper and elitminating all airflow to the radiator. We do run our own endtanks now so it does fit a bit better yet still allowing airflow to the radiator.

I suggest you have a fender washer welded on the frame on each side to help carry the load. The frame is very thin and not designed to carry load in that direction. It will rip out on you over time. Nobody wants to see that.

My precision 600 was mounted a bit below and at first I minded but then I thought that my radiator needs a bit of airflow so I think it's optimal to leave some space for air
You should have just mounted it how it came, how it was MEANT to be mounted. Your choice, just don't come crying here if you overheat and melt something.
Peanut butter, I am willing to bet that you have an external cooler of some kind or live in a cooler climate.
