SLP lid won't fit onto maf
I tried slipping it in and I ended up cracking it in half !!! What do you think I could do to fix it ? How the hell are they supposed to fit? Maybe I got a 00-02 lid for my 98 ? Need help!!! It's the one that has the SLP written in white on top.

All of these Lids are just cheap plastic. Whisper Lids had so many crack that they sent anyone who asked, a rubber collar to seal the crack. I got one.

How much diff do they really make ? Seems to me it's more problematic to put one in and deal with the cheap quality then their real gains. Kind of pissed since mine cracked and went in but left a huge half and inch space that needs to be filled with epoxy or something. I still find this unacceptable really but there is nothing I can do. I should of used the heat trick but it's too late now.

You are right it's the same size as the lid great thing I know this now that I cracked mine and epoxied it so it can fit... I guess it will be too short now to fit since I am waiting for the glue to cure.
