Installed my first car part last night

I guess it was about time i got my hands dirty so I ordered up an M7 intake, super ags, took me about 40 minutes of installation time. Man let me tell you, what a difference it makes. The BOV sounds alot nicer along with the overall engine sound. Ill have pictures up later today.

I know this is kindof off topic but @yetti, you used plastidip to do a joeymod? have you had any bubbling or anything wrong with it from getting hot? I used plastidip on all the same things as you and also the boot handle and I love the look. I am planning on doing inside of the headlights soon but not sure what to use to do it.

Colin - try Duplicolor high heat spray paint - there are lots of threads regarding the joey mod.
