Default Spoon duct install questions......

Not sure if this belongs here or under the hood, but here goes:

I did a quick once over of the airbox to see what needs to be done to install my spoon air duct and I came up with a few questions:

1) Any tips on removing the stock opening plenum? There are two screws underneath that are impossible to get at without ripping out the entire airbox assembly.

2) I guess you can call it the radiator cover, or the black plastic piece that shrouds around the hood latch. The directions (in japanese that I can't understand) say to remove the whole thing, but again, crazy impossible screws. Do you guys recommend just cutting away a hole instead?

3) I didn't see any real fasteners with the kit, does it just stick there by itself?


Thanks for the help
Simon

I would recommend using a dremel or very sharp razor to cut out a percise square for the spoon duct. Spend lots of time making it look perfect. people will give you more props for not hacking up your S2K.
