Any photos of the finished, fitted product?

Still need to measure around my intake, and decide which version I can afford. After I've done the wheel bearing that's started rumbling...

On the previous page, there's better photos on eBay.
I would recommend the cheaper version as there's more room between the engine on those.

I've made a slight re design on the brace where it mounts to the strut top. To allow for more strut top discrepancies. I'll be cropping the angle where it meets the flat bar so it looks nice.
