Folks with redesigned SLP lids?
Folks with redesigned SLP lids? I kept reading about how crappy the SLP lid fit, ranging from gaps between the top and bottom portions of the lid, to the tabs not staying down and a lot of people mentioned rubbing against the hood. These three problems kept coming up from a lot of you, and now just recently I some members said SLP redesigned their lid.
My question is, how much of this is true and did it fix all of the problems above(gaps, tabs and rubbing) I dont wanna drop a hundred bucks if the old problems are still out there on this new design.

I believe I have the redesigned lid, I bought it a couple of months ago, directly from SLP. Basically, it fits well, if not a bit tight. No visible gaps. The tight fit however did break one of the clips that hold it down, I had to buy new ones from GM ($3 a piece). Good piece, one of the better lids out there from what I have heard.

It is tight getting on the MAF and the top of it must rub a little on my VFN hood (with WS6 lower airbox), because I see some scuffing there. There was none with the standard hood & airbox.
Otherwise, it is a quality, well-constructed piece that fits well.
