Thats bad! hopefully they will pay for it but I doubt it. They can come up with so many excuses. Next time make sure they put some screws either on the iddle section or on the side. I have both the middle and side. The side ones are small and black so they cant be seen

Shouldn't need to change it. You can wash it with just a water hose. Let it dry completely, and then put it back on. I would let it dry for a couple of days.

Although, the injen website says they have a cleaning kit. I thought it had a dry filter. So I would go with their kit. But it also says it should be good for 30k-40k miles.

I use dish soap to clean the shiny stuff out of the rubber, then use alcohol on the letters...

No need to change it. I usually just vacuum the filter with a ship vac, but you can use an air compressor to blow air through the filter from inside if it.


Here's a link explaining how to clean it (about the 3rd section down):

Edit: another more detailed how-to:
