Here's a few I took of the process:

Johnny pulling out the old:

A little test fit so I could get a measurement or two (you notice I ain't the one who kept climbing in and out of there. Might have born at night, but it weren't last night!)



and Johnny wearing as much Plasti-Dip as he's getting on the CAI:

Test fitting a second CAI I promised to another DF member, slightly different as this one will have no stock air box, so I had to come over close enough to the sidewall to catch a bracket I fab'd up and then angle it back out for the filter. Ol' Hammer was double cuttin'. LOL...

and another shot of the finished product:

and of course Pyro needed some mod work too, but not on his truck. After he SLOPPED on some of my one step stain and poly, I sanded these pieces for his AK47 down and applied a second coat. I'd imagine he'll have some pics in the Outdoor Section when he gets them put on...

All in all, a good day... especially since Johnny brought the beer!!!

Yeah bear I think it turned out well. After seeing Pyro's I knew I wanted this setup. Plus, I like the fact I have a k&n. IMO k&n makes one of the better filters out there and this setup really lets the motor breathe.
