Getting closer to finishing my cold airbox, just giving it a good sanding and tidy up etc.






And was thinking whether I should:

Polish up the sides and lid

OR

have a polished lid, and use a carbon fiber vinyl/film on the sides

OR

Something else

yup its aluminium (1.6mm thick)

Nice idea about the clear lid, but as I'm sanding the outside welds down, I've put a few extra welds in the inside to keep it strong. However I do have a few stickers: TRD, Tein, HKS, K&N & RHDJapan.com smile.gif


Its proving to be a bit difficult to buy that Reflect-A-Cool tape over here in NZ, theres a few places that stock the DEI brand but dont carry this line for some reason, and do not want to stock it.
haven't emailed any of these guys yet. http://www.designengineering.com/storelocator/australia-nz

Thoughts about putting that Reflect-A-Cool tape on the inside? Or would that defeat the purpose of having it?
