not really an aesthetic mod but here it goes.
With the NB8A (maybe B and C as well) for a better induction noise with the stock intake just remove the "snorkel". Takes 1 bolt, so about 30 seconds all up.
Compared to my old intake it's not as loud but a deeper sound, not sure if there is any performance gain or not (probably not)

Those are special all terrain slippers. You would think they are just for inside, but you can take them everywhere. To the shops, beach, they go great with jeans!
