How do I seal the airbox?

[cloudbreakmd]

The cover is all painted up pretty but feels loose on top of the airbox. Any ideas about making it fit so it doesn't slide around and how to make a good seal?

Get some foam weatherstripping from your local hardware store. It comes on a roll, and has adhesive on one side. Place it anywhere the lid comes in contact with the sides and/or the filter.

yep. use 3M adhesive weatherstripping. run it around the edges of the cover(s) anywhere you think air might sneak in.. then press it all back together, and put the screws/tabs back together.
i'm sure your airbox is a little different, but these should give you an idea.

in 6this one, if you look close, you will see the foam between the clamshells.

Exactly what I was thinking. Thanks guys.
