Unhook the breather hoses and the airbox lid. Loosen the hose clamp at the throttle body. Remove the upper half of the intake system. Remove the stock panel air filter and the bolt from the bottom of the airbox. Remove the bolt from the top of the airbox and set it aside, as you will be reusing it.

Take out the lower airbox. Remove the gold bolt. Use a pair of needle nose pliers to unclip the fender and attach the rubber molding to the top of the heat shield.
