This reminds me....I gotta finish mine too. Too bad mines not carbon.

Looks good. You should have made it bigger.

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.

Looks good, where did you pick it up?

I'm pretty sure the NAs had single stage paint (no clear coat) except for the metallic colors. If the rest of your car is single stage then I wouldn't bother clear coating the lid.

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

I've rocked the car without the headlight lid long enough. It definitly would'nt stop me from going on a cruise ;)

Looks great! You did a smooth cutting job on that lid.

He got it off me.
Looks great btw!

You can get em at mckinney corp website for like $40-50 per duct

Well you motivated me. Ran out to lowes and picked up some adhesive and glued mine on....bout time I finished that project anyways, thanks!

Yeah thanks man

Whats the website to buy these ducts?

I think I would have put the lip of the duct on the outside to cover the curvy/not smooth cut. Otherwise it looks pretty good. Larger would be more win.

Filled it with bondo

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!

Really? I used that stuff on everything, I basacly did the same as you scuffed it up, acetone and applied.

Got the black on
