This place is a joke.
Its not hard to remove. It takes me maybe an hour to pull it off after doing it a few times before.. Its HEAVY and You'll need a friend to help. I pulled mine myself by standing in the engine compartment and then sitting it on the core support with a furniture blanket, then I climbed down. For reference, cast-iron engine paint is almost an exact match for the factory airboxes. And of course my star emblem was broken which.you have to buy a whole new front section,but I found the chrome star from.our wheel center cap is the same size. I didn't pull it to paint it just FYI, I am installing my modified IC core and meth injection, but figured I would paint it after seeing Berti's job.

science would prove otherwise. however i agree it looks sorta neat. why dont you ceramic coat the pipes at least? im sure there isnt much option for another place for the filters but maybe you can fab a heat shield or sorta box around them. aesthetics might not be on par but the benefit will far out weigh it. but either way good job.
