I tried all kinds of weather stripping meathods but it never held up long or looked good enough, so I went with the BG ram air kit...

It looks stock and has held up as good as new for about 3 years on my car now...

Same here. I tried to do the same thing and I ended up getting the BGRA. It works great.
