BSR if you get the C7 I will be so jealous! I was anxiously waiting for 13 January and the debut, and it was worth the wait. I want that car so bad, I seriously hope you get one so you can drive me around in it!

C'mon you can't let a little thing like money stop you.

my apologies for not having read the entire 155 pages.

But is it just me or the Vararam V6 video instruction showed some questionable discrepancy. there are three installation videos on the V6 Vararam intake page. the first video at 4:28 (long video) shows the radiator brackets facing outward; meaning the sides where he cut the plastic are facing the wheel wells, as oppose to the second video right below it at 0:28 showing the cutting side facing inward towards the radiator.

has anyone noticed this? so which one is the correct one? Vararam should clarify.

Here is how mine is cut/shaved. I shaved the inside portion down. You'll need to shave them down pretty far for good clearance.

Also, I cut the rubber part to lean the radiator backwards, and then took the portion I cut out and shoved it in front to keep it tight.

Thanks KMPrenger for the wonderful picture. i am assuming that picture is showing the passenger side bracket correct?

Yep correct. Make sure you shave them down far enough so that the part you shave down is perfectly level with the front (side towards the engine bay). The first time I shaved mine down I didn't get them quite far enough, and this resulted in the Vararam intake shifting slightly when I drove the car.
