Really nice DIY and great pics! I´m on the fence bout goin this route, somehow the Injen design is more appealing than the aFe intake (and I don´t mean visually).

But I have some questions for you guys with it; how much crap or water gets in through those openings on the top lid, or through the OEM inlet? How often do you have to change or clean the filter? And what difference is there between the polished and the black wrinkled pipe in terms of heat; I´m thinking of going with the black one as I assume it´s less prone to pick up heat from the environment, even though it may be minimal..

thanks
