procrastination is like masturbation; it feels good while you're doing it, but in the end you're just screwing yourself.

Bro that looks sick!!! but my response to removing the mesh is be careful... the mesh was meant to protect debris from going through those holes... even tho our cars didn't come with those mesh. I would be interested in this but I might be getting a complete kit a little while after my car gets out of the garage. Great work tho!!

To prevent huge/middle sized debris from going through the holes... that's the reason for mesh's on kits and such. It's just a precaution.. not saying there will be huge rocks flying through there everyday.

UPDATE!!! So i HAD to finish the fogs before WekFest09 and here are some of the finished product. Look closly inside to see the silver finish of the tubing, I need to finish routing the tubing to the weel well, but the silver you see is the tube that goes to the intake. So out of the possible 4 tubes (2 for intake, 2 for wheel well) I have 2 hooked up. I will try to get some closer shots soon.

Let me know what you think. I got rid of the mesh, because there was no way to make it look clean, so she is shaven now...


Thanks to Finagle69 for the awesome shots!
