Default Finshed my new air intake!

Well, I originally had the G2 lid, awhile back. Then I decided to go different then most and went with the twin cone volant cai. Well like usual I got bored with that over time, and went back to the lid again. BUt did it alttle different then norm. What do you all think?

Yeah that looks real nice. What kind of paint did you use on it? I mean, does normal paint adhere, or do you need high temp paint?

It's actually a decal. It's the decal that is on the ceta rear filler panel.

It was a spur of the moment idea. I am sure I am not the only person to do this though. I just never seen it though. I was going to put the decal on my rear filler. But decided to polish it instead. And When I got the lid and had a decal that had no where to go, I thought what the hell, why not.

I am using the stripe. Otherwise there is air gaps. It is alittle tight. But it does clip down.
