Air intake idea?

I really want to use the foglamp holes for air intakes, like the 5.0's use, has anyone done this or would anyone know what I need to use to do it???? I am sick of scraping the JLP's scoop!

If you look in through your wheel well,
you'll see it's actually quite easy.
A couple of bolts and the Fog Lights Out,
then you would need to use a hole saw on the back
to open the back of the Fog Light hole so you can hook up your intake hose

Details here.

For an air intake, any kind of tubing will work fine. You will be going up from the driver's side, through the wheel well and into the engine compartment.

Great idea, but this will require some custom fabricating...Im sure you can find all your materials at Home Depot....use 3 to 4 inch flexible dryer hose or even ducting hose...as far as brackets, 2 inch aluminum strips allways worked well for me....
