Ah pick that filter up off the bottom of the splash liner. Its going to suck up any water that finds its way down in there. Everything else looks good, just suspend that filter farther into the fender so it stays dry.

Yeah it doesnt have to be pretty, just has to hold it up. I think zip ties will work just fine.

Zip ties? lol, this thread will apply to the next owner of your Z one day

I kid, I kid, I'm actually envious that you made your own and it works. That's what matters. Job well done!

I'm thinking of getting CAI too. It's like $300 though and I have neither the skill nor tools to make my own... is it still worth it?

the only thing i paid for was the filter. and that was like 24.95. and it made a huge difference for me.
