In the quest of customization, I had seen some modifications in which areas of the car have plexiglass panels so that one to see what is normally hidden from view. The Racing Beat intake is somewhat stock in appearance in that it is simply a big black box that houses the airfilter. This filter is quite large and has a blue anodized cap on the front.
First step was to cut an opening on the top. I followed the embossed shape on the box for the opening and by using a dremel cutting tool I cut out the plastic. Followed with a sanding bit to smooth out the edges.
The next step will be to create the plexiglass piece that will cover this opening. It could be simply left open, but since engine performance is gained by colder air, leaving it open would only allow hot air from the engine to enter the intake.
