    not really sure if it is or not but looks like the fuel filler cap? am I correct?

    How long did it take to do that and is it going on a light or dark colour car?

      hi,

      no, this is the upper part of the airbox.

      it´s looking nicely how did you do that?

          no matter if it is RS2 or S2, the upper part is the same the parts below are different.

          ~100mm inlet on the RS2 in comparison to the ~70mm inlet on the S2 ABY.

              Is that a seperate part that fits over the top of the airbox or done directly onto the airbox?

              Been looking for a carbon cover for the airbox for ages, Arnomatic has been too busy to put it into his catalogue of Carbon bits

                    No it's bonded directly, i could ask if he could do some covers. This cost me 70€

                      looks great, now if you could get the lower part done in carbon with a 100mm+ trumpet then that would be fantastic

                        Hmm the edges on my airbox are broken, long story so don't know if that would work?

                          I dunno if the tops of S2 and RS2 airbox are identical... I know you cant fit the S2 MAF on the RS2 top without some plastic mods.

                          I'll discover this weekend if the S2 top clips onto RS2 bottom though so I can run some B2B tests using the same air filter and MAF !

                          Given the low price of RS2 MAF right now I'll prolly buy a fresh one anyway for the 'real McCoy' factor.

                          Hey I priced up the RS2 air guides and they are ridiculous at UK dealer prices - like 60 and 70 quid for upper and lower - ridiculous.

                            im pretty sure the top of the RS2 box is shallower than that of the S2 box because the bottom accomodates the larger inlet duct

                              They must have gone up in the last 3 ish months as they was cheaper than that when I enquired and purchesed mine.
