APR cf radiator cover

Just picked this up the other day....fitment is "okay"....there's a slight gap towards the front near the hood latch, but I may just need to re-adjust it. It's held down by only 3 tabs; one on each side and one in the middle so that may be the issue. Overall the quality is pretty good. I'm probably going to paint it white with a fade towards the intake, but overall I think it looks much better than the oem scoop. I wonder if the air guide actually works

can you take a picture of what it looks like under the APR cooling plate, i was wondering if it has air guides for the intake side to direct air into the scoop just like how it is on the Gruppe-M and Monster Sports cooling plate.

yes and no...it does direct air from the 2 holes underneath into the intake...but the "guide" isn't nearly as good as Gruppe-M....it just makes a path for the air to travel...it's cut in half on the bottom so the air is free to travel and not directed right into the intake
