I just installed my SLP Lid! Here’s my review. I ordered the lid from the WS6 Store for only $90 shipped!
The only problem I had was getting the Air Silencer off of the MAF housing.
But after about 10 minutes of pulling I finally got it off.
I heard that the rubber grommet and the IAT sensor were really hard to get out of the stock lid.
I just popped the sensor out, and then very easily popped the rubber grommet out too, it was no problem.
The fitment is PERFECT, no rubbing the hood or anything.
The throttle response is A LOT better, and the car accelerates a little stronger.
All in all this is a great/easy mod to do, and I highly recommend getting it as your first bolt-on.
9.5 out of 10

So far just refitting the bellow and moving everything back along with redoing the clamps has worked.
anywayz don't really care im in to horsepower

I guess I got lucky and bought mine right before he raised the price. Now all of his lids are $92 shipped!
