Group Buy - AU Acron Style CAI's (Cold Air Induction)

[Ken_AUXR8]

Mine arrived too just now. Looks great, though I might paint it body colour for fun!

If anyone fits theirs into a v8, i'd love it if you could post the part numbers for adapters, piping and filter etc. This is my first time fitting any sort of CAI so please excuse my ignorance!

Good to hear Ken, I have mine painted body color as well to match

[FAT245]

Mine arrived today, Only question is, should the mounting hardware come with it?

[rayban76]

Good to hear it's arrived guys.

I was under the impression that the screws to mount it were included with it

[pete05]

Mine came with self drilling screws but I think I will use nutserts when needed on mine.

Mine came with mounting screws, Nathan just check the package it came with as they are stuck on with tape inside the CAI they might of fallen off

Cheers Dean

[FAT245]

Ill check it out again after dinner...

[BREEZEMONT]

Thanks mate we made them thicker on the first one we literally couldn't move it more than 1mm to screw in the the fasteners just like the genuine abs versions so we had to lighten them up as the glass just is so much stronger it had no flex which made us laugh but realized yeah better make them a touch thinner lol

As I said Nath if the screws aren't there let me know I'll post u a set out tomorrow morning. btw we put in four screws as theres nothing worse to drop one and loose it or strip the head with a cordless driver etc.

[rayban76]

They're a first class product Nev, well done ..
As you said will be interesting to see if there's any interest in the AU bonnet with FG bulge, AU/BA/BF wagon b series XR rear bar and AU and BA/BF wagon Bseries XR side skirts

[Strattos]

Hmm, I'm in the same boat as Nath I think. I've had a good look through all the packaging, including the bubble wrap and the black plastic and can't seem to find the mounting hardware. There's a screw already in the CIA - is that all there should be?

Quality of the item itself is awesome though. Great work, and thanks Ray for sorting it for us.

Re the AU bonnet wtih FG build - I'd been keen depending on the price.

[rayban76]

Strattos it's the exact same bonnet as on my wagon, as its a mould of mine haha

[FAT245]

Just found them,

They were stuck to the Shrink wrap inside.

[Strattos]

Looks the goods Ray. I'm keen.

Re the mounting hardware - scratch my last post. Is it three screws? If so, I didn't dig into the receipt satchel enough. Just found 'em.

[rayban76]

Yeah I've seen the mould and it's awesome quality

[FAT245]

If they can do a Mould for a Fairlane, I'd be interested lol

Already been asked Nath and been told its a matter of extending the cut outs for the headlight so we'd just modify the finished bonnet instead of making completely separate mould just for the 'lanes / ltd's.

Strattos glad to hear you and Nath both found the screws.

[FAT245]

Hrmmmmm... you have peaked my Interest...
First let me get the new Motor built!

[BOTTLEDUP]

Interested in a high series AU bonnet with an FG bulge if it also has the extra clearance underneath the bulge... The steel options with the BA bulge use the standard AU framing.

[rayban76]

Dave it's an exact replica of my bonnet that I made, the subframe in mine is the FG bulge subframe, follows it up the inside, check out my thread and you'll see it

Rays original once I finished cleaning it up and painting it to finish up his handy work and making it look like a factory item.

[BOTTLEDUP]

Looks good. I'll just have to sort the freight issue.
