I always liked GatorBuell's outer airbox mod, so I decided to give it a shot.

What do you think?

Nice mod, not really my cup o' tea with the cut out of the "BUELL" emblem since I removed all of my decals from my bike, "BUT" this is an exception [up]
 
Well I finished with a file, razor and sandpaper, but thanks.
I also panted the inner lip black to clean it up a bit.
 
That looks good dude, and im happy to inspire. Much cleaner than mine was before a little bondo. And yes it was a pain in the arse to do. :D

Tell me about it. It took me at least eight hours to do from start to finish.
 
Dang!! Looks sharp!

I don't think I have the steady hand to be chopping up my plastics. I'd try to cut out "Buell" and it'd come out more like "DUGLL"
 
Looks pretty sharp Nitto! Awesome job.

I just picked up a 3' x 4' chunk of the metal to match the stock intake grate. I don't need anywhere near that much to do mine.

I'll sell you a chunk if your interested.
 
Buellysses,

I think I'm going try to swap the front mesh first, but if that fails I will hit you up.
 
03Firebolt9R,

Yes I have done the airbox delete. As for power there might be a slight gain, but nothing drastic. Keep in mined that the front of my airbox was open already.
 
Very nice, very clean & custom. Maybe that will cut down on the - "Awww, your lying to me, that has to be the gas tank" questions.
