Anyways:













Installed my Airaid CAI tonight. Painted it myself, 3 coats of high heat primer, 3 coats of high heat engine enamel Red, and 2 coats of high heat clear. The damn shame is that I painted the ENTIRE outside of the filter housing. And you only see about 30% of it.

Oh well, I'm incredibly happy with the finished product, easy install, only took about 30 minutes, and I can't wait to test it out on the road tomorrow!
dam looks great i have a almost brand new Airaid sitting in a box in my Garage cant seem to sell it everyone want to pretty much steal it from me i had a 10 LT2 and now of course i have a 12 45th and the O2 sensor dose not match up at all so i wait for the rite price till i get another one

Oh wow, so the air intake changed from 2011 to 2012? That's odd, there's no changes on the SS.

Thanks for the compliments.

And I got mine dirt cheap, $150 shipped with a cleaning kit. Less than 2,000 miles on the intake when I got it too. Guy took it off when he was installing a supercharger on his show car. Low miles, great condition, great price too!
