Now what happens when it rains and you get water on your coil packs? Or better yet, in the winter time and you get slush and ice on them?
Nice install BTW. Check your PM for an iTouch question.

lol im guessing no one read the part about the plastic trim around the metal....i got the door trim that you can get from crappy tire around the edge of lip, its filled with silicone, so no rust for me =)
kev i'll get you the roms shortly. why would there be water on the coil packs? the hole has the scoop over it...lol
the tool is a nibbler
those are my air horns, niks seen/heard them before. last few times i blasted them at the meet it made a couple people jump. sounds like a bigrig coming, not quite as deep but for $20 it beats the hell out of the stock one.
licence plate was when i owned a woman's minivan when she ran through a red light in the winter. thankfully the fofo stood up well.
Little bit of show, little bit of go.

Water will get sucked in there faster than hors d'oeuvres disappear at a Rosie O'Donnell birthday bash. You may as well paint "Hoover" down each side of the scoop. Or, get some decent mesh in there to at least keep large debris / ice / Dodge owners out of the engine bay.
It looks good but it'll get dirty in there fast.
