I added a door jamb to the rear hatch because my switch for the rear dome light has never worked. but now when i open it up all the lights come on just as if i had opened any other door. i dont have pics now but if any one wants i can take some.
I still have yet to make my shield but I love my homebrew intake.
The piping I had laying around from an old Integra cold air kit. Found the bends on it I wanted and cut them. Then powdercoated it red to match my XJ. Then braced it. Done.
Shield next.
