you could try the AEM cai, but not the one the dealers offer, the ones straight from AEM, i believe they go lower that the fog light hole, best bet would be to contact AEM, unless someone else knows of a better product/way

sorry couldnt be more help

I like that intake, most intakes I have seen with that shape end up with the filter sitting in the middle of the engine (this seems like it defeats the purpose) I like how you filter is routed to the foglight cover. Someone mentioned that you could cut a hole in the foglight cover to make an intake vent. I did this ,its easy and look great, here is a pic:



p.s. I know the grill is white right now and looks stupid, I just have not painted it yet, i am thinking of selling it.

Its just a stock cover that I cut with a dremel. If you cut it correctly it leaves a lip for the grill to slide into. For the grill I used some gutter gaurd form the hardware store (just painted it black). To make the edges look more finshed I purchased some black trim from autozone.

the grill is a peice of gutter gaurd, you can buy it at any home store in the lawn and garden section. I bought mine at lowe's. It comes in a big 3ft sheet and is normally white (i painted mine black). The only tool you need is a dremal to cut the hole, you could probably use a knife but it would take forever.

An intake that works with fog lights is a Blitz Induction Cover.


Just no Bling Bling!

And ignorance is bliss.

Or in your case Blitz.


It is far from "crap".


Snide comments from people like you who just don't know what they are talking about
really ruin a thread.

Can you imagine. just dismissing it that way is real dumb.

Def do what dminner did. Even get one that looks like the GrilleCraft grille and cut it to fit. That'd be awesome!!!

You said Blitz was crap.

I did not say it was better than anything.

A Blitz is far from crap.

You and a few other Parrots just repeat the same misinformation over and over.

You are defemating a product and you are wrong.

You are also very condescending.

Dismissing something as crap is a "little comment".
