WAIT why would you do this? Wouldn't that let hot air in when you're sitting in traffic and when you're moving fast prevent the ram air effect that was designed with this airbox? I'm not sure but I remember when i was on myg35.com they said that for the g35 they had this design because of the ram air effect when you're going 55mph or over. Thats why so many of the aftermarket intakes feels like that lost power compared to the stock ones.

Sorry thread jacked lol.

I think it was meant as a bit of a joke to poke fun.
