I care...considering its 300 dollars & cost no more money to ensure drilling the holes in the proper location.

I care... it rests on the radiator hose and over time it will weaken the hose causing a potential leak leaving the driver stranded on the side of the road. Look just above my thumb.

I care that the carbon fiber rubbed off against the hood

I care that the corner trim is now pulling off from the air box.

lol if you have so many problems what do you have it?

There is no doubt...you get what you pay for and I am not surprised. If I knew it was going to have all these issues I would not have purchased it.

Above is a list of cons and they are facts (in my case) not opinion.

The pros: increased throttle response especially above 3800 rpm & a nice sound.

[Andrew@ET]

obviously the cons < pros or you would be selling it..

LOL....good point......It has to be the sound.

I am going to wrap it in heat foil & shore up the box so it's not sitting on the radiator hose. Then, I'll slide an old peice of radiator hose over the corner that wants to rub...just in case.
