Stangmods.com for 100. Install isn't that bad but it can require a little effort. Took about an hour for both sides. Doing it again would only be about 15 minutes or so.

I also prefered the overall look of the C&L. However there were a few things about it I did not like such as the blue hoses they use and the finish. My solution to both is in the picture below. As for the Aluminum holding more heat than the palstic. Someone actually did a test not sure if it was here of TMS but they did find although the metal tube like the C&L did hold more heat ata stand still once moving and the flow of air began running through it, it cooled down more than the others and had a coolder intake temp.

Very cool. A few questions: What is the exact model of your CAI? Did the hose come chromed? Where did you get the red engine cover?

It is the C&L, I took it and sent it to a chrome shop to be chromed. You can get the cover here. Painted to match your car.

Or you can get a real custom one here.

OK, super dumb and embarrassing question. What's the exact name of the cover? Is it called an "engine cover", head cover, etc?
