Looks good. Going into the airbox it can NEVER be too big!

Looks good to me. What diameter is it?

If you ever take off your front bar, remove the bit of plastic that goes under your headlights on that side. I cut the middle out of the plastic mount for the headlights as well...

Looks good to me. What type of filter are you using? I just fitted a K&N to my car a few days ago. Seems to be going ok. Not really expecting any real improvements but it would be nice! Car seems to be a bit smoother but hard to tell really.

Hope your mod works well for you.
