Nice one, thanks for the pics :)

Need to get the bumper off and take a look at the air feed route so I can figure out how I want to do it

Not yet actually, it's probably been delivered but lost somewhere in our stores as it's all being moved around at the moment :?

Managed to get some tinker time today :)

Got the bumper off and took the resonator box out, it's a fair lump :shock:

Have the cai down in the arch now and have straightened out the air feed pipe for a smoother run. As I had the bumper off it was a good chance to figure out where to get a feed from and the fog light blank was definitely a good choice! It's not directly into the ducting but it gives an air route from the front bumper to the air pipe :) need to make a carbon scoop to go in where the blank was to channel the air in the right direction then it'll be done.

Pics are on my phone, I'll get them up in a couple days when I get my USB connector for it ;)
