I liked the black because it offset your other parts on your car, but the graphite is closer to "cf" color

On a side note my Berks just got back from being installed, so I will have to get it out on the highway today and see how I like it. I'm excited to have a bit more tone and some better flow. It should be interesting to say the least tho :-D I will keep you all posted
I wasn't too sure about the graphite until I remounted all the wheels and stepped back. I think it s the right accent for my car. Yeah those sides would be a nice addition.in due time

I didn't really get a chance to drive it and get on it, it definitely has some more growl at lower rpms. I think I heard some rasp at some higher rpms, but I will need to drive it again and more to see. We will see. It sounds a bit louder tho

i'm sure the heat doesn't help much Mike. Sounds like everyone's planning on going to the RK meet 2night, but I'm very much doubting I'll go for how hot it is. So much easier to walk out the back door and fall in the pool w/ a beer in hand..haha

That does indeed sound like a good plan! If I didn't have plans I would join ya since I will be up there later today.

I attempted to install my intake in a half hour and it took me 20 minutes just to get the filters attached to the tubes. I'm not as crazy about the assembly of this as I was my injen or the Stillen Gen 3 I almost got. This has a lot of screws and such that make it tougher to attach with 30+ washers n bolts But other than that, its pretty high quality. The color is really nice I will wait to install it until they get my front bumper painted for me. Kinda sucks but no sense in installing it now to send it back to the dealer, I don't want them questioning anything. Not that I'm concerned about it happening.

...no sense in rushing it and scratching a brand new intake all up

Yea I was really lazy last night lol. I got home at 930 and just sat on the couch and looked at the forums and got some ideas! I think I will be doing a debadge next week and blacking out my emblems on the back minus the "S" as well as dipping the rest of my grille n Mt Fuji symbol.

Here are some pics of my R2Cs sorry for the poor layout, I just did it super quick right before bed. I really do like the black nickel finish of them, I'm pumped to get em setup and see what the diff is.*I'm not expecting anything off the wall, but if I can get a large gain under the curve like some other ppl have described I will be happy.
