I bought one of these, from eBay about a year ago, It was painted candy red, in the pictures and looked real nice. When I received it, the quality of the paint and the weld was so poor I wouldn't put it on a beater let alone on my Vette. I took pics of the poor paint job and weld and emailed them back to the seller, he agreed to give me my money back.
Not to jack your thread, but I have an intake that has the 2 K&N style filters on it. I switched to the vararam so it is just sitting. It looks like the one from the Mid America Direct Catalog. It is black plastic. It came with my car when I bought it.
You live in chicago and could easily take a look at it (I am in
Brookfield). I would sell it for $50.00. I liked it but I got a great deal on a used Vararam.
Be very skeptical of cheap aftermarket air intakes. The filters may look like a K&N or others but are most likely not made of the high quality materials like cotton and filter oil used on the name brands.
