That’s going to be a tight fit, as the standard airfilter housing is almost rubbing the mesh of the decklid....

Carbon detail thickness slightly more than 1 mm and it perfectly fits to the original one. So, totally height increases in 2 mm.

Hmmm. I even get a little rubbing on this part from the mesh. I'd like to try it though. How much?

I could understand if these replaced the plastic mouldings, but sticking a carbon piece on top or wrapping it?

Most of my cars have some sort of modifications except my cgt. IMO, this car is perfect the way it came out of the factory.
