I did see any fitment issues. What was the issue? And how did you trim the stock cover to work?

Driver side shroud was a bad mold. It was gapped approx 1/8-1/4 inch above the drivers side headlamp housing instead of sitting flush like the passenger side shroud. I trimmed the 4 tabs off the back of the factory cover. This allows the cover to sit flush against the air filter box. If you do not trim the tabs, the cover will bow in the center and you will not be able to align the holes for mounting clips. Trimming the tabs also provides the required clearance to close the hood.
I just gave it a whirl and was able to line everything up & close hood without trimming the tabs! Only drawback to re-using factory shroud is you lose a cleaner/tighter seal where air comes in from grill. Air can now go into the S&B airbox or choose a different path via the large escape/opening (see pics taken from rear of engine bay). Not sure if that will hurt “Ram” air performance or make no difference at all. Gunna give it a whirl for a few days!
Def loving the Easter egg being back! Best of both worlds!

The hood pushed mine down when I left it like that. Trimming it allowed it to rest flat on the filter box, and no more pressure from underneath with hood closed.
Hood pushing it down would make a snugger fit no? And prevent it from rattling/vibrating on top of the S&B on washboards/etc.

Nope, not with the angle of the 4 clips. It was enough pressure across the front of the box that I was also worried it would eventually pop the air box off of the throttle body

How were you able to determine the angle of the clips (and associated pressure) with the hood down? If it was pressing that hard, you’d feel a bit of resistance when closing the hood.
Not much movement of the airbox on my end even with good pressure. Def not coming off the TB on my rig!

Glad I could help. I've purchased a few parts from them for other Mopars and have never had an issue.

Mine wou
Mine wouldn’t close at all without slamming the shit out of it. The clips actually scratched the top of the air box. Now, the entire cover lays perfectly flat across the top of the box.
You sure you’ve got your airbox adjusted properly? Either way, mad props to you for the game-changing post haha
apparently they have an updated drivers side shroud they are willing to send per their post on FB

I am sure. My other concern leaving those tabs in place lies with possibly creating a gap between the hood intake and the air box, allowing hot air to be sucked in from the engine bay.

You going to reinstall it when you get it or leave it as is?
Yea my fitment is not nearly as tight as yours so ive got no concern regarding a larger hood intake gap.
