CAI from Cold Air Inductions
hmm wonder why you have a scuff under the lens. mine look pretty good. the bubble one looks like it might have been from the mold they make the lenses from...not sure but i will check mine tomorrow and see if i have one there.
if those marks really bother you i am certain that company would switch you out for another one...they were really good to me with the shipping damages

the mark in this picture is normal. both my depos have that mark in them i just checked. must just be something they stamp on the inside of the lens when they make it

Zach, I'm not gonna complain, they look way better than the ones that were in there, clouded over in areas etc. I may have never seen it unless my brother pointed it out to me! I was kinda thinking the same about the bubble also! My car is not perfect, way to many rock chips in the front end that I would really like to get fixed in time, maybe by next summer if I can find me a nice winter beater?

Looks great Chris! I have a small flaw on the lens of my new Depo driver side tail light - not enough to go through the hassle of sending them back.

thanks Zach (shockerdude) and also the tiny bubble on the last pic on the right above my torn jeans, also under the lens! Also as with member sluggers pics above, I also have a huge gap between my CAI and the underhood frame, it was the same with my old CAI, don't know why either??
i believe that dot has something to with aiming the headlights when you use an actual tool rather than the garage door ... but i could be wrong and it just be flash from the injection mold ... either way, its not going to affect light output in the least ...
and if the gap bothers you that much just get some double sided foam tape, or even some black duct tape ... hell you could even fiddle with grommet type insulation that is stock on the K and N type air filter ... im sure a trip to home depot/ ace/ lowes would net something that would work ...
car looks awesome by the way ... reminds me of something i used to have
thanks Zach (shockerdude) I posted the bottom 2 pics kinda for you? Do you see how there is kinda a scuff on the last pic on the left, it's under the lens! and also the tiny bubble on the last pic on the right above my torn jeans, also under the lens! Also as with member sluggers pics above, I also have a huge gap between my CAI and the underhood frame, it was the same with my old CAI, don't know why either??
The other thing I am not crazy about with this part is the fact that there is only two bolts holding the part in at the bottom. When I go over bumpy uneven road I actually hear the box rattling against that cross bar. Everything is installed properly so I don't know how I am going to get rid of the rattle???
