For those who asked, the cold air box on my car is one of my (actually, my brother's) own design and construction. I've sent a lot of template sets to people all over the U.S. and Canada, but haven't really heard any feedback regarding if it was helpful or not.
[B]and how did you get all the plastic soo shiny?
by the way i received your templates yesterday and made the cardboard model and it fits great. Think I will weld instead of doing the rivets (no money to buy expensive tool for one time use). What do you think of epoxy?

As far as welding vs. rivets, I think welding would be great. I would've done it that way if I'd had the tools and experience. If you have those, I might be jealous of your air box. If not, rivet guns are cheap ($12-$20), they're easy to use, and rivetted joints are strong. Plus, you won't use it just for this project. If you're thinking of bonding the box together with epoxy, I think you might reconsider. Epoxy is a bit harder to work with in this kind of application, it takes a long time to cure and clean-up is a bitch.
C'mon guys (and gals)...give us pics of your glorious FCs!

) with Meguiar's products. When I'm gonna do a complete detailing, I use their Gold Class Car Soap and then I normally use their polish followed with their Yellow Wax. My paint is starting to show its age now, so about every third wax job, I use their Cleaner/Wax. It cuts oxidation really well and emphasizes the shine. Also, I use a Craftsman 10 inch random orbital buffer. It cuts the waxing/buffing time in easily in half and seems to do a better job on top of that. Everyone should have one of these. They're only $40 and come with a case and whole bunch of bonnets.

But yes, the car is fast.
Whats your estimated number on that with mods?
Damn eViLRotor...very, very nice ride! If mine weren't already gorgeous, I'd be jealous.
