Intake opinions

Hey guys
Im looking for opinions on what is the best looking intake.
All comments suggestions welcome.
I am looking to dress up the engine compartment, performance gains are not an issue. I have a 99 maxima se.

Thanks

P.S.
Moderators: if you are going to delete this, at least tell me why.

If you want looks, I think the chrome Injen looks best under the hood.

about the frankencar......
I like it performance wise, but what is up with that rubber plate looking thing in between the filter and the maf sensor? It looks kinda rigged to me in the pics.

about the injen CAI.....
i really like the chrome, its nice. but im looking for the open air filter look if you know what i mean.

i dont mean to be lazy by asking for help on this. i just want to be sure im not missing any of the other intakes out there.

and thx for your input

Well if you want to see the filter than Frankencar is really your only choice. Injen is the best looking IMO, Frankencar being a close second....

Or you can get the midpipe marblized through 97MaxGurl. Talk to her and she can probably have it marblized. Looks really good too.

Injen looks great under the hood and sounds awsome.

Hmmm... no one seems to mention the Firm Fabrications WAI.

http://www.firmfabrications.com

Looks pretty nice from the pictures, but is there something wrong with it... poor filtering ability, less power gain, worse sound?

TIA.
