Pics of JDM headlights install and cold air setup.

After 2 weeks of waiting from the mismatch headlights shipment I just got my driver side JDM headlight today and went ahead with the install. Taking off the front bumper is easier and faster each time you do it. Here are some pics of my cold air setup, I can definitely felt some power and throttle response is alot more sharper than before I also switch out the AEM filter for the SUS mesh filter for more airflow but the filtering of dirts is still questionable though but it sounds alot better than the AEM filter. I still have to take some pics of the lighting at night especially the front sidemarker with the PIAA LED blue/white light it is sweet looking shining through the 06 JDM blueish lens. The lighting is not so good so I have to take a better pics of the headlights later when I give her a good wash.

It is the funnel 6" in diameter that draws more air in as oppose just the ducting itself.

Less than a finger gap all around 2.35" drop up front and 1.95" in rear. No problem here.

Not night/day difference just a slight bit in the upper rpm.

I seen your car at RJ meet but never met you in person, your car looks sick man. I know and I do have the mesh but decided not to put it on because it just limits the air flow going through there I don't think it should be a problem and the car is not a daily driver anyway.
