this tip will turn ANY kit filter into a K&N weather its a ring style one, a box/rectangle shaped one, or the tuner cone style ones. I have posted this tip on the hobby heaven thread so you may have seen it before. You will need the following: the kit supplied filter Testors Insignia Red paint Thin tip ink pen like a Sharpie or similar art pen. your finger (trust me)
First paint the part with the insignia red, let dry Second draw in the recessed areas with the sharpie pen Third rub your finger up and down the grooved areas while turning the part Fourth paint the non filter element parts your color of choce, in the case of the cone filter the end part and the part that attaches to the motor can be semi gloss or similar black. for muscle cars i believe the rubbery part (gaskets on outer edges of filter) are red/orange color.
Hope that helps
