Yeah, I agree it’s very nice but I don’t thinks it’s Alscoobs his is blue, I think that’s an AC Schnitzer G31.

Spacers just aren’t my thing & I’d lick the sweat of a dead man’s balls before I fitted them to a car of mine

To be fair it is a very shitty piece of crap, but nothing else fits in that custom-made intake so I can't do much about it other than deal with it. I don't understand why people think these things are better than a regular OE filter.

Pros: The intake noise is glorious
Cons: I got no stickers

Correct ^^ sorry meant to say that it was an AC Schnitzer car and used it as an example for the OP with the ACS wheels on that ACS referred to in their advice to me.

Not mine.. but I wouldn't mind it though with all that kit
