    mm yeah its a bit late i did the cut a 1/4 of ur bottom 1/2 out

    but it happens...i guess ill just find myself a new bottom 1/2 wen i need to. im intrested in giving my "cold air intake" more "cold air" to intake, but with the modded airbox.

    Molested stock airbox with a K&N panel filter does it for me.

    Oh the piping is a good idea don't get me wrong, but making a custom intake and relocating the charcoal canister to fit, is really more trouble than its worth.

    There is a whole lot of BS covering it, and haven't some people on here(looks at stu) removed that trim altogether, I'm not that game tbh. The actual wheel well trim has holes in it amongst other things.

    Nice one Matty, your making us all jealous haha!
