So the polished AEM looks SWEET and sounds even sweeter! thanks a lot for your tips, I'm very pleased.

Only problem is the fit was so tight that once I secured the intake to the body via the "rubber thing" there wasnt enough clearence to push up the filter rubber high enough on the intake pipe because the hole was slightly too snug. So I had to remove the rubber piece to get the filter on properly, and once I did that the rubber wouldnt fit so I had to find some bolt to help hold the tube more securly in place.

The manual reads that if I dont have this rubber piece the warrenty is void, so anyone have tips as to how to get all this shit together without breaking something? I'm thinking I might remove the intake from the engine, slip under the rubber stopper, and try my best to use some elbow grease to get the intake back in...
