Aaron did mine, too. Before I install it, I'm going to paint it when it's warmer outside (shouldn't be too many weeks---south Texas)

Here's a place where a design tweak might be needed. My truck has a couple of A/C lines that interfered with a quick install. I drilled new holes to reposition the lower plate. That just made the filter not fit right. Need two reliefs cut: One in the lower plate, and one in the vertical shield. I no longer have my cutting torch, or it could have been a 5-minute process. That's why I did the drilling. I still have a drill. Turned out to be a waste of time, since the original holes were good for filter-fitment. ----well, poop... might have to upload from my phone.... Here's a verbal description, though, in case I can't do an image. At the rear of the bottom panel, there needs to be about a 3x3" notch right near the place where the rear bolt is welded in. The angle-iron bracket doesn't need modification. That'll allow plenty of clearance for the vertical A/C tube. The vertical plate just needs to be about an inch or two narrower, cutting from the aft edge. The front edge with the C-shaped cutout for the hose needs no adjustment..... now to switch to phone....

that didn't work, either.... here's the link to the Facebook picture. https://scontent-a-dfw.xx.fbcdn.net/...34641379_n.jpg
