Hope you've got some holes in the bottom of the filter housing to allow rain water to escape? :unsure:

Fitted the alli on front of air box and used old boot seal to see if it seals air box to coupe works spot on .
I would like pro alloy to make a better air box might send them a drawing and get a price would look so much better with nice alli welds instead of rivets lol

Ordered some new rubber seal as mine is falling apart .
