i don't know how to look up parts numbers, but couldn't you just look up the part number to the airboxes to see if they are the same?

It says the airbox is 1000$ on their site, no? Also where could we purchase it from? Is there any online shops or anyone that lives near a renntech dealer?

yeah, if you can find out about this, that'd be great. Wouldn't mind this upgrade if the cost was reasonable.

Now just gotta find a CF engine cover to match. We have that nice 90 degree angle hood, might as well show off what's inside.

So this is just the CF airbox, not the engine cover as well? Damn. Oh well It will still look sick. BTW I did check the part numbers on the EPC and they are the same.

Haha, believe me, I was this close to not doing it.

Ron Jr, when you get a chance ask them also hbow much it is. Then if it all sounds good I'll pay you to buy it for me and give you an extra 100$ or what not for your work.
