Ok got home from work today to find I have got my new Air Filter and Induction Pipe. Also my new number plates and strong double sided number plate bads :D Here is how I got on

First jacked up car and tried to find where to put the Induction pipe, this required for the front bumper to be removed

Image

After alot of oooooo and aaaaaa, i found the perfect place for it where it doesn't ruin the cars looks and gets plent of air to the air filter

Image

and here is what it all looks like now

Image
Image
Image
Image

It was very hard to get the air filter to sit where I wanted it to soo i didn't hit or bounce around, as you can see in one of the pics, I have cable tided it to the old air box's frame :lol:

Next was to fit my new number plates which you guys might like 8)

Hope you like my little touch, it was corsa B or my name Grant Lee Walsh :lol: but when it comes to selling it, i dort think peeps want my name :lol:
