[QUOTE=EddyEdwards]My friend and I are going to put a Pod Filter into my doorstop :P/QUOTE]

im sorry, doorstep?....

i was considering the same thing (k&n panel or pod 57i for my 1991 SP), but i decided to go with pod cause my limited knowledge of fibreglassing will help me build a nice looking heatshield, and i didnt want to wreck my airbox for cai with a panel when i sell the car.

and with a pod i can show my friends my engine and they will see this 1337 looking pod compared to just a black air box..

ahhhhhhhhhh ok! haha

yea everytime i look at the front of my car i fall in love with it again and again! and i just finished polishing most of it today so it looks and feels so sweeet and smoooth~

looks nice when i park it to my parents nimbus, it looks so low and sleek comparatively! i cant understand why you would want to lower it more! (well actually i can, but they are nice and low to me already)

No no, it's Doorstop, not door step.

Doorstop - like a wedge.
