i sorta want to cut some of the excess in between the fog lights and add like a curved piece of material so the air is forced up into the engine bay

but then i would need to do the washer trick to let the hot air out

has anyone done this??

don't... unless you can reinforce the wheel wells... I've replaced mine when I removed the foglights... the air force is TOO great.... and it shoves the soft plastic right onto the wheels as you drive.

I have done this already, and I'm most likely going to pipe the area around the fog lights into a funnel heading up to the intake.

Will do the same for the other side once I figure out where I can relocate the window washing fluid container.
