hey guys, ive got a cai, but the piping is pretty ghetto. its a pipe off a BA Falcon modified to suite my car + an intercooler pipe i had lying around. it doesnt look too bad but its not the best either. ive posted a pic below to show what i mean.

i found this on ebay:

i really just need the pipe. but im not sure if the pipe will fit perfectly and run neatly from the engine to the hole where the stock airbox used to be. it says it will fit but i dont trust it coz of some bad ebay experiences. the pipe is a usdm, does that change anything? basically i just need help from someone who has something like this on an EG d16y1 (sohc) so they can tell me if it looks right or not. the part of the pipe that bends into the bumper doesnt look right to me.. does the angle need to be larger or is it fine?

any help is much appreciated guys.. thanks
