I ask because the nismo r-tune intake (ingen?) pulls air from the front of the fender well vs front of the radiator like on the gen3's. might be another thing to buy..(?)
It's the opening at the sway bars on either side. Also the kit didn't include the correct number of bolts, they shorted me three and put the plastic push buttons in place of the 3 bolts . So, I'm having to use 3 bolts from the OEM piece to make up the difference.


PS: NO instructions with the kit either. I mean it's not Rocket Science, but where/why to use the 3 plastic push buttons instead of the bolts.....?

x2 wow... did others have this issue? i dont remember mr.gale or mr.onzedge complaining about the shortcomings?

i thought it was a perfect fit with all hardware included.

is your swaybar bushing completely exposed? if so might want to put some sort of cover so you dont wash out the grease from water kickup or something.

the push tabs go in the middle hole(s) forward of the swaybar. i cant remember off hand if the factory shroud used one or 3 (my head confused with my G's lower shroud) but i know it uses tabs to initially secure the shroud so it makes it easier to screw the other fasteners in.
