    LOL

    Enjoy your new car.
    Penguins are very elegant. Who else would wear a tuxedo 24/7?

    It's that lingering aroma of rotten herring that spoils the effect.

    Well, lesee here. Got most everything pulled 'cept the exhaust system. Got a tow truck coming after noon to haul it to the RV parking in front of the house.

    Then he will lift the "sort of" car so I can get under the back to grab the exhaust. The ricer rear sunshade is a goner. Sh*t that's some seriously strong tape that holds that on. My hands look like I stuck them in a fan blade....repeatedly. The front of the car had smashed back into where the ECM hides. 2 hour struggle, but I finally got it and was able to slow the bleeding somewhat. Then I remembered that I have 3 of the little bastiges. WTF did I do that for?

    Amazing story: The cone filter at the end of the New Era CAI was almost totally flat. With some trepidation I stripped the adhesive insulation off the tubing and, ????? Hardly a scratch! Between the flexible silicon and the stainless steel tubes, it is just fine. Anyone know what # the K&N cone replacement is?

    Did you keep the box? Otherwise PM Mike. K & N has a website with all numbers and specs. OK pricing. Seem to remember that it was an off-road filter before I returned it and bought R. F..

    Glad you're able to salvage most things!
