I just sanded and painted my air breather cover with engine enamal. Simple took maybe 2 hrs because i wanted to find the right look came out nice don't have any pics on this comp of it but I re painted the whole thing black my "dodge magnum" sticker was still on there so i taped that off and managed to save it. Then i just painted the outside lip of the lid red looks like something dodge threw on an old school mopar out of the factory.
That and put in a new filter itself.
Not making anymore hp but it looks good. honestly i regreted it at first because it makes everything else look dirty and like **** lol. but it is a truck!
Honestly though i had a thought. I've read about people taking the grill off to cut out the cover going into the breather hose but I figued that might risk getting mud and debris inside and damaging your filter. But i thought about doing that and getting a small square filter from like an edger or something in it's place. Not sure on how well it would work or anything just an idea.

K&N Plenums & Weber Adapter
CUSTOM PLENUM
Cast aluminum plenum, beautifully finished with black powder coating and natural aluminum highlights. The plenum is designed to fit most American 4 barrel carb that have a 5-1/8" flange. Also will fit the Weber DGV carburetor when used with K&N adapter 85-1061. Designed for cold air intake, plenum has a single snorkel outlet that can be fitted with a 4" I.D. hose running to a remote air filter. A K&N universal filter with a 4" flange can also be clamped directly on the snorkel as well. See the Universal pages for filters that will fit onto the inlet. The outside diameter of the plenum is 9" and the snorkel sticks out 6" from the center of the plenum. Minimum clearance required above the carburetor flange is 3-1/8". Customer must provide 1/4"-20 hold down stud.
