Carbon Fiber Air Intake?

They are all kinda around that price man. Go look for a used one, that's what I did. Also are you looking for the full box, or just the top portion.

I've personally spent a 1/3rd on each: power, suspension, and cosmetic. Popping your hood at a gathering is a part of the fun of owning these cars.

Thanks for the dumb comment but I have to object.....a stock CF airbox cover isn't going to make anymore power then the OEM part. Actually it isn't saving enough weight to even make the car any faster. I was simple asking because it seems like a bling item.....not really performance.

So guess what ahole your the actually dumb one. Everyone knows an actually intake kit not a CF airbox cover will make more power...noob
