I'd get one one there. It affects not only air flow to your VR but was initially put there to channel air to the stock intake and channel to the radiator. It blocks it from just rolling over your radiator. Now you have a bunch of air going thru neither.

Hey gconnoyer, noticed u removed the strut bar all together. Looks pretty good with the svede and the fast combo. I was wondering how the car feels without the strut bar on there.

Here's a pic of when I was installing my new OTRCAI. For some reason I didn't take a pic of it fully installed. In this pic we were test fitting and trimming the fan shroud.

I did too. A lot of people said the paint wouldn't hold up from the heat. I used Rustoleum "Universal" paint for all surfaces and it was primer and paint all in one. It's been really hot here like everywhere else and it's holding up fine.
