Mark_H 0 Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hi,Recenly brought these to improve the intake for my car as the air filter is fitted behind the old grill. Should I colour code these Red or leave as Black ??Thanks,Mark[img width=800]http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y77/Mark_H/Vr6_SC/Picture025.jpg Link to post Share on other sites

Gadget-Master 2 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Thanks for the pics...I like the red... Are they smoothed aswell ?No, bolted and an extra screw, the only way they can be seen is to lay on your back!! I have ran a Red 45 degree hose from behind the off side inlet to my air filter. I don't have a pic of this at the moment, but it blends in very well. Link to post Share on other sites

Mark_H 0 Posted May 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 when you fitted them did you have to remove any plastic lugs from the bumper. I think I'm going to have to remove two plastic locating strips/lugs in the top edge of the bumper where the existing cover locates....I hope that makes sense.Thanks,Mark Link to post Share on other sites
