yes at the store they only come in white

its holding pretty good so far

 

[bigbossin]

Thinking about doing a custom intake and wrapping it with that, just hopping it would lift or peel with the heat from the engine

 

[bigbossin]

For the sticker I would send the picture to a company see if they can make one

Had my wrap on for about 2weeks it's holding up pretty good a rock hit my hood few days ago lucky I had the wrap it ate up the wrap and not the hood

Car is sitting in the shop getting new control arms, poly tranny mounts, poly rear trailing arm bushings, oil change, fuel filter change and getting aligned.

 

[Nomar06]

Fuuuu....they found the left rear wheel has a crack. Add $100 and car won't be ready until tomorrow at lunch.

How did they find out? Constant loss in tire pressure or just inspection?

 

[bigbossin]

may look a little ricey but I have to save money for an engagement ring
I call my fabulous work J tec.

 

[Dar-Dar]

What are you saying is ricey? The intake?

 

[bigbossin]

Yes sir, used some of the factory tubing along with cutting off the MAF

 

[Dar-Dar]

That's not rice. It's only a custom intake. Lol.

 

[webby]

care to explain the intake?

 

[Monk]

Detail that black piece, and you're good to go........ No one seems to know what's wrong with it(including myself).............. never point out the flaws, it could be you are the only one that knows...........

 

[Dar-Dar]

care to explain the intake?

It almost looks like an X-intake with the maf housing cutout.

 

[bigbossin]

So what we have here i cut the factory tubing off that has the vacuum hole. Added a 65degree elbow to the end. Next will be your factory maf tube that you cut off then a KN cone. Took a test drive with it and WOW is what I have to say pulls harder through each gear and when vtec hits it screams feed me moar air

it looks like a metal pipe... no?

 

[bigbossin]

It's just plastic plan on painting it black

 

[webby]

plastic painted with like a mirror finish? Am I on crack, or is it just the photo deceiving my eyes?

 

[Dar-Dar]

it looks like a metal pipe... no?

Are you talking about the elbow pipe?

How did they find out? Constant loss in tire pressure or just inspection?

Both I guess, never got a call back with the full inspection. i know I was loosing tire pressure. He said it was really low and I just put air in it on Sat.
