That looks good! Not too bad for $70 bucks.

Thats nice! In a way it makes me wish I wouldve done something like this, but everytime I deal with custom stuff off ebay I get junk .... like my grille inserts which are tie wrapped on. I guess the guy didnt lie when he said they are custom fitted.

Make a box to go around that intake and fab up a bumper scoop like mine. It keeps the intake temps way cooler since a CAI wont draw any cool air through that hole by itself.

The store name is chrome intakes. He sells the same one with his own filter for 47 but I thought I better stick to the one with the k&n filter.

Ya it came with everything. I was surprised, I was thinking I made a 74 dollar mistake. But so far very happy with it!

Looks good. Now build you a box like the K&H FIPK and put it where the stock airbox was and it will be a complete masterpiece.
