Shaker's Installed!!

Dan, I noticed that right off! I then drove to look @ my buddy's. His was done by the factory & his gap is to the Pass side. I just guessed mine was correct. Please tell me so I can print off & take on how to adjust that. I thought it was normal, so it was OK w/me. I'd love to correct that, though!! Thanks so much!

When I installed mine it didn't take much tweaking to center the scoop with the center line of the hood. Notice the grill in the front of the scoop has a center vertical bar that should line up with the center hood line. Once I got that centered I then made sure the trim ring was evenly gapped around the scoop before 3M taping it in place. The Saleen Shaker did seem the line up just a hair better than the CDC one ...
I don't think any where ever done at the factory ... unless you are talking about an 03/04 Mach 1 or a Pirelli Jones Saleen.
Here is my CDC Shaker installed:
And here is the Saleen SuperShaker installed ...

Yeah, I didn't notice that line. Did you say how to do this? I still have the directions, might it be in there?
His prob wasn't done by factory, just meant where they do this a lot. He has that GT-R. He has Foose rims is all I know for sure. Again, I'm as dumb as a box of rocks!! Thanks!!

Kinda too skeered to. If you'll give me a quick how-to. I'll try & do it tom. Cover the red stuff, maybe? I wanted to clean it up the night before. Then decided to get my tattoo, kinda re-wrote my afternoon. Any way I get to my carport, I drive over dirt! Plus, the town I live in still has some dirt roads. I don't drive on them, but town stays just dusty!!

Eli - That shaker looks great! Really "authentic" looking!
I understand re the handicap. Even tho I am FINALLY able to walk on my own again (after 5 months!) I also have a bad shoulder that is a degenerative thing (no cartilage), and it makes any kind of rubbing/polishing painful. If I try to use my left hand, I have a middle finger that's been dislocated twice so it likes to arc backwards & gets stuck until I bend the finger back in place using my other hand! So detailing is getting to be more of a challenge to me too.
But so far it looks like you are doing great!
PS - am getting a cortisone shot in the ol' shoulder tomorrow afternoon in fact. I am hoping that helps for awhile. I still have to detail my wife's Honda Odyssey!

I have quite a bit if brain damage. The force of the ATV kinda messed up crap in my left ear. I now have about the worst case of vertigo 1 can get. It's not the worst cuz I never get nauseous. That makes washing & crap suck! Why it takes days. I just can't reach back & forth like you're sposed to.
Where I live, it's impossible to keep a clean car! No matter how much you try. What's the use in trying? I keep it kinda clean, not like I like it though.
I've been trying to keep up with your crap. Sorry, that's what I call my medical issues. It is crap, you'd prob agree? Thanks!!

LOL, I should have kept my anger to myself!!
(thanks to basketball in my younger days I have a total of 4 finger dislocations, which occurred at separate times. You'd be amazed at how "tough" basketball players get squeamish at the sight of a bent up finger and refuse to pull it back out!)

I feel for ya man. Vertigo is rough stuff. At least I have SOME kind of prognosis to improve. The cortisone shot in my right shoulder today really helped. LOL, after I told my physical therapist (for my foot) my recent orthopedic history today, he said "You've got a lot going on there, but I think I can help you improve."
