Unanswered: Cold Air Intake Airbox

Every time I needed to work on the battery or in that front area of the car my air filter from my cold air system would be in the way or sometimes pop loose. I was talking to a friend who wanted to install a cold air intake sytem on his Chevy Tahoe and decide to try my hand at fabricating a system for my GT. Anyway I came up with the system shown in the photographs below and went to the Autozone and saw this airhorn that hopefully will force more air into the box. Took the car for a thirty minute spin to test my mods and so far so good.

Gray Radiator?

First gray radiator I have seen in an OPEL?
Air filter installation looks professional.
