The glue/adhesive is doing just fine. I've removed the cover a few times and it has remained intact without issues. I would definitely use a a thinner foam than the one I used in the video (it's too thick and makes reinstalling harder)
Great job .. have you recorded any temp difference before the sealing and after? This is critical to me if you can? Because I'm suffering from my Q mostly when I'm in a hot day standing in a heavy traffic.
With environmental conditions being inconsistent everyday, and driving conditions being widely variable, it's hard to actually prove it's cooler, but in theory it should. The intake produces suction that draws in hot engine bay air if there is a open gap. Any car is going to have increased IATs at a stand still, there's no avoiding that. The slow flowing air is easily heated from conduction.
How is the glue holding up on the seal? Wonder if it can take the heat of the engine bay.
