Yeah, it looks like you need a mouthpiece when you use those, what size are they? I was looking into aftermarket stuff but then I read about how our cars are so small and thin that bass is often overwhelming. Plus i got the monsoon and it does fine for me.

Pics of said blue light?

duct tape i figured its better than breaking it cuz its reverseable unlike breaking it, i really dont like irreversable mods. hell i didnt even drill holes for my euro plate it fit in the stock holes somehow. it COULD be tighter or w.e but not worth it to poke more holes. haha

I'd be interested to see this polished/brushed aluminum hybrid look you have for your engine (i assume you mean intake manifold?) I was thinking about doing the same thing.
