Congrats! I think your intake will suck in a lot of hot air - but great car.

And - maybe those pics would be easier to see at something like 1200x800, etc?? I have a 20" monitor and can't see them w/o scrolling!

Shouldve left the taillights alone IMO. It's starting to become one of those tacky fads.

why's everybody hating SRI??? it does the same thing CAI does! i don't feel any lack of power, and honestly, who'd notice that 3-5 hp difference? for what's worth, the HKS sri sounds awesome!

Good job. Rarely do you see a noob not mess up in his first picture post. I think you did everything right. From the clear corners to the HKS exhaust.

If i remember correctly you have Work wheels coming as well. It's going to look ridiculous on your winning blue. Danomite's car has them. What are your specs?
