Project Xcessive LIM install

Hi guys, I'm trying to put my car back together and I been running into replacing little parts. I tried to order the RE Speed oil filler neck but its out of stock so I made this but with all the money I spent this is not something that I want to see in my car and I do not know yet if it will work. Does anybody have a better idea or does anyone make something similar to the RE Speed oil filler?

Ihor just took a torch to my stock piece to soften it, then bent the sucker.

How long are they backordered for? I have one of the RE Speed pieces that'll work with the GZ LIM sitting on a shelf, if they're not backordered for an insane amount of time I might be able to get it out to ya.

Call me @503-256-3278 and I will step you thru it. We dont sell it any more because of poor quality in manufacturing, but we will offer tech support.

Good to know that I can contact sombody when my plan fails. Here is a test fit, looks good but I dont know how well it will work after heating it up. I may have to send this out as a modle and have it copied using a different material.

For anyone that wants to see what the heating method looks like... The slight discolration is hardly visible once everythings installed.

Im using a stock T2 oil filler, you'll have to clock the base but it looks professional once done. Check out Atihun's gt35r build up to see what the finished product looks like.
