^^^ nice

You might want to consider painting the vertical bars on the billets grille black... it might be the pics, but it looks like you had it painted or powder coated... I had that grille prior to Karukie - it was powder coated, the vert bars always bugged me so I painted them black... its hard to prep and paint them after PC though.

Have you considered mesh grille?

I actually didn't paint that billet grill. It still silver. The shadow of my house probably make the color darker. I looked into mash grill but I like billet better for some reason. I personally don't like to mix silver and black. Some people does but I like to keep it simple and clean. I know one thing I need on my back windows is this site sticker if they ever have more lol

Looks good Chris – but I’m perplexed by the intake… the ram air coming from the snorkel above the core support is directing air behind the filter

I don’t want to tell you what to use – and I’m certainly no expert… but that doesn’t seem to be the most functional of intake choices available.

The bay is looking good though

Lookin' good Chris, I like the black plenum.

Just started on my engine bay this past weekend, its a work in progress. Had SxExCx install a custom grounding kit and polished plenum (review posted here). More polished items planned for the near future (polished RareJDM harness cover, NRG strut bar, NRG hood shocks, polished timing cover, polished throttle body, etc.) and more stuff after this first round of mods are installed. Ignore how dusty my bay is right now, will detail it soon.

Candlestickpark... looks AWESOME! I am going the SAME route as you. Going to be going with the polished plenum and such, however I am going to have accents of carbon fiber. Engine bay shots look great guys! I can't wait to start on mine!

they are very compairable as they are very similar. Pretty much the same, although I believe the pop filter has more of a whistle than the stillen and have heard the stillen has better airflow due to the airbox. I only chose the stillen because of the clean/stock look
