Default Finished the 100MM lid (with pics)

Ok so a few weeks of messing around and its finally done!!! Has a few tiny air bubbles in it but it fits awsome and looks good too.

I've got to take a measurement of my FASTTOYS lid as I beleive it is certainly larger than the 85mm that they advertise. For some reason I thought it was close to 95mm.

That looks good. I had the same thing painted on my old lid but in pewter and black.

Good work.

thanks for all the bumps guys! As for fitting i had no issuse with the hood but, haveing a 4.2" mouth on it i had to remove the section or radiator shoud under it so it would clear and line up for the MAF. I plan on running the 100mm MAF with the 92mm TB/intake when i get more money saved up probly over the winter.

Talking

here are a few pics of the install i still need to finish fit the back (grind it down a bit) but other than that it fits great and looks good too. I also plan on making a fiberglass patch so the hot air isnt blowing on the bottom of the airbox

Do you think this will result in a noticable power difference?

Is that the only way you could get it to fit is to cut the lower air box?

looks real good, just wondering about fitment under the hood, can it be done without having to cut the lower airbox.
