Bought Stillen oil filler cap (and cleaned engine bay)

Just took some good pics and thought I'd share (and my engine bay is nice and clean) I left the Stillen decal off the cap, I thought it looked better...

Nice and simple oil cap...but do I see one of your ground wires going from the + terminal directly to the - terminal?

Good looking job. I noticed that you don't have the foam gasket thing around the air intake. Do you find more road dust gets into the bay without it?

No, definitely not!! Just appears that way in the pic. look here:
The main power wire loops around to the Stinger terminal (and kida goes under the grounding kit mount)

Yeah it started to rip off so I just took it all the way out, I haven't noticed much difference actually...and I clean under the hood all the time!!

why did you leave remnants of the stock intake - it's just plastic might as well remove it

More for looks, underneath is kinda ugly, plus it seems like that piece would funnel some air straight into the intake...

EBAY, I looked for the one I bought but no sign of it. There are plenty on there, just enter "optima battery tray"
