Aftermarket GT2 air inlets

Has anyone tried these? I was planning on removing mine and having repainted to match the body but I like the GT2 look.

Well, I ordered them and will let you know how they look in about a month. I wanted the option to keep mine instead of making them a core.

Hi there,

A few of us have done this, looks really good. The matt CF inlets really blend well with darker colors.

Cheers,

Hi,

These are the OEM matt GT2 CF inlets, pretty easy to swap out with existing inlets, just remove the centre piece and replace.

Cheers,

Wow you actually paid 4600 for them? Want to sell them to me when you sell your car for half off?

So far the best thing I could find is MAcarbon matte OEM ones, but they aren't GT2 RS version with the middle part removed.

There is a bit of a lead time for the Stone Carbon ones. Agency Power will modify existing intakes for $1000 but I am hoping these will look good enough and can then keep or sell the stock cores.

I have a black car and like the look of the inlets without the middle splitter. Worst case we do a bit a work to them, prime them and paint to match the car.
