Installing the air system starts with the fresh air intake box and fan assembly. I lay down a sheet of duct tape to protect the paint, also helps fan linkage to slide in.

The foil lined air hose is cut to fit and installed between fan and flapper boxes.
Then the defrost nozzles installed.

The cables that drive the flapper boxes and fan are then connected to the control levers in the cabin.

I may have missed this but have you done hood gaps yet - specifically the adjustment of the hinge relative to the hood height where it meets the cowl?

I believe the body shop did the hood, lids and door installation.
@Targa70 can you answer that?
