I was tossing up between a pod filter and a panel. The rules here in NSW would require I go get an engineers certificate if I changed to a pod.

Panel was a lot less stress, adheres to the manufacturer engineer intake system and will take advantage of the RA snorkel I'm getting.

The pod filters I've seen for CJ's remove part of the airbox in order to fit, bypassing the snorkel system. This doesn't seem proper to me.

I might be wrong on that last bit. If anyone can show otherwise that they've got a pod filter in the airbox, would love to see it!

Plasti dipped my Indicators xD

Kinda being a tight ass atm and decided it would be easier to dip them instead of buying the smoked ones off ebay xD

Only did a light coat, but I still think they look good :3


Excuse the dirty car! After washing cars all day at work, it really makes you not want to do your own xD

Looks like there is enclosed pod filters! I'd be interested in seeing the figures of pod vs panel, both with RA snorkel.

Yeah I'd never bother with their own stats.

400% more airflow. 30% less fuel consumption. 30kW. 10% more street rep.

Today I thought I'd try my luck with plasti dip.
My car is pretty stock except I got a blue interior light and white/blue headlights.

This is a before and after shot with plasti dip.

I also got some chameleon plasti dip to do the diamonds, it's not a great photo but I think it looks awesome!

BTW, I'm new to this whole customising experience so please bear with me while I get excited over the little things *dance*

Washed my baby! First time since starting new job >_<

Also noticed I'm going to need to redo my Chrome piece on my bumper with dip :| Got a bit close with the hose and realized it took some of the dip off :|
