K-Tec Carbon Fibre IK..

Put it on today, but the bottom of it leaves a gap, so im guessing that means its going to be sucking un-filtered air. If I push it down then it just about covers the gap, but the bolt holes dont even remotely line up. Not happy, esspecialy at the price they charge.

The offending product

Anyone else bought it and found the base plate doesnt fit?

Those two tabs should go into two slots iirc. In the bottom of the airbox bit.

Im sure they will exchange it for you, just give them a bell and explain the issue, looks about 5mm to short.

yea they push down if the holes dont line up try putting the screws in and if it isn't sealed when its tightened its not fabricated up properly

Yeah, pushed it down, thats what causes the bolt holes to not line up. Shall send them an email now.

Yeh something isn't right. Wouldn't of thought you'd have any problem getting a replacement they're usually pretty good tbh.

Aye. Hoping they wont ask me to send off this duff one, cant be bothered with the hassle of buying a box and organising a courier etc. No time!

If they just ask for the mounting plate stick it in a jiffy bag.
