yes thats mostly true, thats why i never felt like puttin one in my 91 formula, however since these look good and bolt right in i might as well add on. i am a fan of not having lots of chassis flex which is why i am getting subframe connectors very soon as well.

Eliminating any kind of body flex will help at the strip..

Mine is red, but that goes along with my color scheme. Mixing red with your green air filter might not look so good.

Black man, the silver is to silver for the silver bay.

What they say in Basic Training, always polish both boots the same.

If one is shinier than the other they both look bad.

That green filter and clear intake is scary looking on a silver car.

Just sort of jumps out and kicks you right in the- well I can't really say what it kicks but it kicks something....

The burgundy (burgundy not red when it gets nice and dirty like mine) or cool blue would look sweet, the silver bar looks to gray and doesnt match the car.

I vote for silver. (Where the heck's the poll?!?)
Pick a color theme & stay with it, IMO, ...

yeah leaning towards black now.

i forgot to make a poll.

the green does stand out but i am tired of the k&n's color

i might put some of that spray on tint on the lid to blend it in more.
