I've had it for about 3 weeks. Love it. Still debating on the cool air intake or gutted air box. Open to suggestions. Also thinking about clearing the corners.

Definetly do the CAI if just for the MPG gain. And clear the headlights, there is a writeup around here somewhere that shows a pretty easy way to do it

No, I haven't thought about removing the pinstripes, I actually prefer the the way they look.

Well some like them and some don't. I normally don't, but the red actually looks kinda cool.
