Air intake........? You've only seen them for $300?? AEM CAI are about $170. AEM V2 are about $279.

94-97 accord intakes aren't for the 3.0's....

98-02 V6 accord intake is what you need to be searching for on ebay... I recently purchased an aem cai from www.autocarparts.com ....180 shipped

NOOOOOOO for the 3.0 you will need one from a 98-02 accord V6. the 94-97 are only for the 2.2 and 2.3

if i were you, i would not paint the intake. not unless you have serious skills or want a crappy job. take the intake to a powder coating shop-believe me, it really pays off (plus its not expensive)

If you were going to get it done at your local shop for $150, double check what type of filter he'll be using.

I've been looking into ebay intakes for a while now...I'm just leery about the sellers. It seems all of them have a few negative feedbacks. And I'm a firm believer that you get what you pay for.
