This is right after I got the intake in, aside to some info I found on the web involving removing the bumper, I decided to remove my headlight, it was very simple and easy.
And this is finished product, love how simple it was to do, and the gains are immediate, im very happy with this intake. Very nice gains through 1st, and you can feel the difference all the way up. Im also gonna post a picture of my lights later on.

So were you able to remove the headlight without taking the bumper off? If you were please tell me how. When I put my CAI in last year, everything I read told me I needed to take the bumper off in order to get the headlight out. Taking our bumpers off isn't really the hardest thing in the world but it's just a PIA to line up all the little holes and clips on the bottom when putting it back on. It's about that time to pull the filter off and clean it, but I really don't feel much like pulling the bumper if I can avoid it.

There is a bolt behind the bumper on the sides. You maybe able to get to it by pulling the side out a little bit. So you at least have to pull it out some.

Yeah, i popped the clips across the top of the bumper, and the clip inside the fender. Then once i removed the two top screws on the headlight, and the one up underneath the headlight like right behind the bumper...this one was tough to get out and back in. But once all 3 were out the bumper pulled enough to get it out. And it was so convenient.

cant remember if you have a wheel setup or not but since youre lowered that would be my next move.
all of them seem pretty "safe" in terms of specs. nothing crazy. that said, out of those, i think the 2nd option would go along better in terms of your red/black scheme. even if they are 18's lol.
yeah, lol. I wish they had that one in a 17. But I do think with the right tire, it would look just right with my teins. I have about 3 or a little more inches of space, so why not just fill it with wheels for now, lol.
Also check out www.wheelfire.com. They have really good prices for wheel/tire packages. The tires probably aren't the greatest, but the price is right. I might be ordering my new wheels from them next year.
