Hey everbody- I know there are not many, (if any) pics out there of a Cusco plate cut to fit the Spoon snorkel. I figure I would post this if anybody needed a visual reference.

Overall all I am happy with the plate, my only concern is the plate dug in a cut my paint around my rubber hood stoppers a little. I guess it's because it's sharp cut aluminum being compressed by the radiator mounts. Installation was not that hard. The stock airguide was very annoying to get out, I actually just ripped it right out and all the little plastic screws poped out, unharmed..yay! I cut the plate with a dremel and put some finishing molding with a little black silcone to keep it snug to the plate. The molding is actually black vacum hose slit down one side, this works great if anyone is looking for a door trim alternative. And adjust your hood latch to the highest settings even before installing the plate, it will save you a lot of unsuccessful hood slams..lol

 

Nice work, that looks really good.

 

I've been wanting to do the same thing with cusco or carbing plate, just wasn't sure how it would turn out, but now I know it looks good. I also like the idea with the vaccum hose.

Looks good As for any hp gains, you'll notice the increase in performance when your "at speed"
