Yea the covers look great but i would have to put a finer mesh down behind it to keep the small rocks/road debris out. The only concern i have with that is the water.

 

I've been running this with the injen cai with no problems (except for the hydro shield). The injen intake sits behind the bumper cover. I think with a cold air intake all you have to worry about is submersion, it should be fine as long as you don't get direct water.

 

^this. unless youre dipping your cai into a puddle of water, the small amount of spray your filter can get wont hurt anything.

 

Nateson, on the ones from ebay, couldn't i just make a template of the insert go to my local home depot or lowes and get some of this material and then cut according to the template? Instead of spending like $60 just on inserts

 

Sure, you could do anything you want. The link to the inserts I posted are $25 plus shipping, and have a nice press to them. Then again I remember you were not to happy with the width of the grate gaps. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

 

Thanks. ill post up some pics when i'm done. Yea everybody has their preferences. They don't call us lego cars for nothing
