aem intake and engine cover?

I tried searching for this and came up with nothing,

Does anyone know if the engine cover will still fit once an aem intake is installed?

I really like the look of the engine cover.

I believe it does. I think i I had it on at first, but then took it off because I like it that way.

Since you remove the plastic parts from the airbox there is a missing clip that the engine cover goes into on the airbox. So it stays clipped on the left side, but it's technically loose without the other side clipped in. You can leave it on that way, but it looks kinda weird with the missing airbox. Imo it looks better just leaving the engine cover off with the aem cai.

^^ and if the missing clip bothers you, you can very easily fab up a little bracket with some aluminum from the local hardware store and a grommet from the same store.
