rains not a problem

driving through small bodies of water, however, will hydrolock your car

you will only have to look out for rain if the bottom of the cai is hooked upwards, so water can get trapped in the bend and then sucked up once the car is started.

i only really did it because the person who had it b4 me must have bumped the front end and repainted the bumper. so i thought it was ugly with those painted so i just cut them out

BTW, i just ordered my invidia exhaust last night

Looks sick! I always thought it would be a nice brake duct. Does it line up nicely to cool the brakes? or is there stuff in the way? like the inner fender liner or something...

functional brake ducting is an easy mod -- the only thing in the way is the airpump on the driver side -- and it's easy to work around that.

there are lots of threads on how to make the brake ducts functional ---
