Am I being insanely stupid or something?

I was about to install my JR airfilter (thank you Taliaferro) and I popped my hood, and I just cant find the damned air filter box!

Help please?

thanks,
Matt

Close the hood. Grab a torx screwdriver and take a look under the bumper. The filter cover is in the right corner, just in front of the passenger side wheel. There are four screws, take them out and the filter slides down.

You'll be surprised how skinny JR looks compared to the OEM filter. And put one of those "do not discard" stickers on the cover, so the service guys won't throw away your 60 bucks the next time you're in.
