Default N/S air intake added.

Just fancied balancing up the front end by adding another fog light surround unit to match the offside. Thinking it looks pretty good and I'll live with it for a while, the old cover can soon be popped back on.

Heres how it was, this is a feed straight to the air box:-


Added nearside unit, air being ducted to engine bay:-


ps:- offside fog light unit is on ebay one day left if anyone fancies doing this mod.

Have you got adapter plates that fit into your fog recesses or have you just put some ducting into the holes? I have blob WRX and that looks like a cheaper and more practical way around paying for fog covers, looks mint too.

What size ducting you used?

Thanks pal

The hosing was 85mmDia, didnt need/use and adapter, just tie wrapped the hose in place using variuos holes that were already in there.

Using the fog light surround gave the dia I needed for the air intake, which was the important one, plus it being a factory fit part, it looks just like it.

Nice one cheers mate, looks good and I reckon it'll be cheaper than buying for covers plus paint plus stickers!! I'll crack on with that shortly!
