Nice work man!

Are you making a top for it, or sealing the sides against the underside of bonnet?

yeah im makin the top out of fibre glass as my sis chucked out a bit of ali sheet i was going to use, il make the mould out of cardboard on the car first then the fibre glass goes on then some insulation inside the walls, then to find a scoop to bring the air from front of the front bar in to it.

i like my apexi pod love the sound of it when boosting rather it than the stocky not so cool lol

Looks good mate, congrats on having a go at something and not just getting on here every day bitching about the price of this car or that car, someone running an atmo bov or someone not using the stock airbox. Very refreshing

looks real nice, good job. i made mine with aluminium, never thought about fibreglass .

[jimme85]

every one bitchin about some thing on here lol, cheers man fibre glass was pretty easy first i made a mould for it out of card board built it around the pod in the car by tapin it all together with makin tape, then i pullin it out as one unit, then i layed the fibre glass on it and coated in in shit loads of resin, dryed cut the edges to right size and presto the box was made plus its got two inlets into it the stock one and the stock intercooler pipe as well

nice and happy now
