I made it, the pcm, fuse block covers and the FIPK radiator support myself from stainless steel as I didn't like what is available for sale in the aftermarket.

I did the same Steve, plus I have opened up the underside of the SS hood outlet to allow more air to the top of the filter rather than just getting air from under the filter as it exited the SS hood. I know it works as I find dead bugs on the top of my air filter that get sucked into the SS hood scoop and get deposited on top of the filter pleats. This never happened before with air exiting the stock SS hood air outlets.

Link to a pic of my '01 SS with the FIPK. It's from 2 years ago and I have done some major detailing and clutter control under the hood. Removed the AIR system, painted the rubber that connects to the filter element to cover the date codeing, painted the faded fiberglass piece that connects the bomper to the core support, wrinkle finish painted the valve covers, and polished the A/C evaporator and the fittings.
I will get a new pic up but the motor and trans are out of the car at the moment...leaking rear main.

Here's a pic of my K&N setup with the SLP MAF. I've had it for about 4 years now.
