Had some sway pieces laying around so used it on the plastic below the stereo

Mate, this looks fantastic. Keep up with a good work. i am guessing that the yellowish glare is due to the red inserts and not the resin as sometimes they tend to go yellow.

Well - here comes Firestorm plaque with the real GLOW

Had some spare time - so did it like I wanted to do it

4 LED's and reflective CF + normal CF 86. Will connect it to interior light - so it will light up once the car is unlocked

Will post pics once installed

Cant call it snorkel anymore - its more or less intake airflow directing tube I guess lol

It picks up air straight under the front impact beam - so its right on direct airflow...

And to go along with all the 'fresh air' - new fresh air filter

I was always using Apex' i cone filters and was super happy about them - and now vent with drop in by apex' i. Will see how it will perform after i make intake pipe

Will be doing it in CF - so will add another point in LOOKS department

Which car is the snorkel from? It look like a good idea.

Yeah it looks good mate. What did you use? To be honest I thought you used a factory intake from another car and adapt it to fit your car. It looks quite nice.

I think GruppeM has done something similar:

doggy · 01-09-2013, 05:49 AM

Yea, this one looks similar - only it goes in front of the impact bar. I wanted to save foam - and not cut it... I used PVC plastic - which is super easy to work, bends / glues like a dream - and easy to sand...

That looks freaking sweet!

Looking forward to the install pic.

The interior with the red CF looks really good. And the extra piece you made for the intake, I really like what you did there.

doggy · 01-09-2013, 08:00 AM

Ahhh - completely forgot what fun is to drive my FRS, cuz last 3 month all I was doing - was moving it from one garage to another... So yesterday I bought some 225/45 winter tires - mounted them on DAMN Fugly stock wheels - and took her for 250miles roundtrip - was smiling all day long

Oh - and finally installed (fully) my fog lights

Front end looks way better with them!
