Like I said before.. I really didn't have a plan to sell these but just made a set for my car. I am going to have them color matched for my ride so it will look pretty clean. You have no idea how expensive that tri stage paint can be.
Powder coating would probably be a better solution but I am just picky.

so, is the "problem" with a unit like stillens "long tube" version the fact they don't get the filters deep enough down in the fender? Even with the provided heat shields it's still drawiing in "underhood" heated air?

and of course the stillen price is absurd....but then again, fabricating one off pieces can get pretty pricey as well!
