You would be the first contour to have a stamped impression of your filter box after slamming the hood

Besides, I don't think it would close properly without a lot of tinkering.

No need to do this, but you can try. I'd much rather insulate the upper edges of my open box as many others do. But my filter sits far away from my engine now
