Default I need some Help Please with AEM cold air intake

I have a AEM cold air intake the filter is close to the driver side front wheel in the bumper. With that said i was wondering if they make a air inlet to fit the bumper ? I have factory fog lights which would be a good spot for the inlet but would look ugly just to pull light out

You could run some ducting from your lower grill into your filter, just use some flexible hose. Kind of a ram air effect.

I haven't seen a kit that makes an air inlet yet.......but it's a good idea... I don't have the factory fogs so i can pop out my cover when i go to the track to run and it's like a ram air to the filter.....seems to work great! If you wanted to you could D I Y something to work like flex duct or a cutout with a grill to keep larger chuncks of stuff out......

I saw a couple of xbs at NOPI that took the orginal piece that covered the hole and they had put some holes in it. The dressed it up some and it looked pretty good. I will see if I have a pic of one

volant makes one that uses the factory fog light cut outs as a ram air to their box. look on their website there and pics there maybe that will help give you an idea.
