Had some time today to put this together, took a bit longer than expected as I originally started with a grate drain idea but looked horrible and didn't fit.. I'm not sure how others got it to work who suggested it. I used plexiglass due to durability and it's extremely high resistance to heat - after a 30 minute drive it was much cooler than the rest of the stock intake. I used automotive filter element, surrounded by two identical plexiglass plates. I took my time to make sure the two plates were a perfect match and made identical diameter mounting holes as the stock plate. I used the stock screws to mount the assembly with no use of washers or anything else. Overall it looks good IMO, better than other examples that use other materials such as mesh. The fitment is perfect. My butt dyno is extremely happy, the biggest difference is at highway speed when I assume cooler air reaches that area. I trimmed the excess filter material once on the car, I can take some pictures tomorrow during daytime if anybody is interested.
