Thanks guys!

Got the shield in tonight, $30 shipped from summit via ebay, hell yea! I tried a few different clamping techniques but ended up clamping it under the clamp for the air filter itself....the lip to clamp it down onto is really NOT very wide so I HOPE it doesn't rattle off...we'll see tomorrow I guess!

Fits nicely but not perfectly around the 3.5" inlet filter:


Blocks air from a/c fan as well as snorkel:


But still lets the snorkel dump fresh air into the engine bay, I like that!



Fingers crossed, seems to fit nicely!
