Thanks. I bent it by hand and welded the bottom. I plan to redesighn it to block more heat. Now it is a lot like the AFE intake. I have made a few out of 14ga steel but like this better.

Thanks. Its aluminium. I have made some steel. I have tried to find the kind of rubber that most intakes use but no luck. I plan to make one that blocks off even more heat.
