Has anyone tried to fill in their CAI hole
I would want to return my car to stock if I got the PRCAI, and have no worries about rusting if I sold it to someone I knew.
Has anyone tried to fill in the 3inch hole in the fender?
Any suggestions on how to do it even if you havn't?
I searched but couldn't find anything.

"Now that the opening is cut think about the future when you might sell the car, use the extra template to cut a piece of sheet metal about 1/4 to 3/8" larger than the opening. When you get ready to sell the car you can remove the CAI, paint the coverplate to match, place some silicone on the bottom of the coverplate and place it over the hole. It will never be noticed."
Do you think Silicone would work?
So they say to cut a piece of sheet metal a little larger than the hole and use silicone to attach it (like a patch or would I actually try to cut a 3inch disc and mold it flush to the sight)? I was thinking JB weld (I think thats what it's called, it's been a while since I have used it, it is two tubes of paste, once you mix them together it's like welding)
Thanks for the info.
