Yeah I wish I go the 4" one instead of the 3" but it doesn't look as bad in person, it will still flow enough air for the intake I think.
Cspence go work on it so we could all do that meet by apr/may.

hey you didnt let the cutting tool go wild on your paint, nice job. I've done two and both times I've slipped once and it made me a sad panda.
I had to cut the 4" down and make it .5" shorter, it's still larger than your 3" but it was too long and hit the headlight when mounted.

The paint is a little messed up and there's a little section that I cut a little too much, but a little touch up paint, some wet sanding and a new clear coat will make it look nice I hope.

I bought it of some dude on CR...
My car was re-painted by the previous owner so I'm not sure if it was CC or not
here's a pic from today, glued it on with PL

How did that PL adhesive do for you....I used it on mine last night and today when I was checking on it I noticed that it was basically lifting off my naca duct. After 18 hours of curing I was able peal it all off in one huge sheet. I'm not sure what the problem was...I mean I roughed everything up and cleaned it with acetone prior to application. Maybe its the type of plastic my duct is made out of. O well, I am redoin it right now with epoxy. Yours is comin along good though!
