now what would look better is if you got rid of that engine cover.
you should get a intake next thats always a good upgrade

I have the gmpp. Sounds good IMO. But most would say to get the injen since you can go from cai to Sri.

Strut bar looks awesome!! Were you get the blue sticker?? Or is that black
