      Yes, or even just drilling the holes would help with that, but the slush and snow still like to build up in the fog light housing and that would create a choke point. I just gotta do some R&D in the spring and see what I can come up with. Or start pricing scoops and find a great fiberglass guy lol. I wish someone near me did carbon fiber work.

      Nice info... I live between Denver and the foothills in Colorado, and we get lots of snow... I also read something somebody else mentioned in another thread, about ice building up. It gets to be -10, -20 degrees here, and they use some NASTY stuff for de-icing the roads here that may rust it kinda fast. I haven't got my CAI yet, but am planning to order this week, getting a water bypass valve to go with... my question is, if it gets clogged up with snow/gravel/ice to the point of not pulling enough air for the engine, wouldn't the bypass/short RAM open up? Should I plan on changing it to short RAM full time in the winter? I plan on doin a CAI and just seeing how it handles the weather, and I'll report back. Just looking for a lil more info, and maybe some experiences/advice with the Chrome Intakes + AEM valve combo!
