looks like a true CAI to me, which would require cutting.

its really not that hard to make a CAI. yeah thats all the parts that you need to make a cold air if thats what youre asking. and yes, you will have to do some cutting and customizing

a true cold air requires a hole in the fender, and has a filter that sits above the tire, recieves a fresh constant source of cold air. anything with a filter inside the engine bay is not a TRUE cold air

good luck with that, first thing you'll notice is a noise increase
