Ok my car in paint now and is about to fit the bomex front bumper. The two big fog light holes in the bomex bumper,i'm going to mesh one up and the other one use as a air intake. What i'm finding hard to get is the duct piping people use to do this. The hole as you know is 4.5'' wide and the widest stuff I can get is 2.5''. What has people done on here to get this look.

 

Many thanks Guys Jamie:)

If Paul cannot help, take a look at your local B&Q they stock flexible piping for washer/dryers and extractor fans that are about 4.5" in diameter.

 

I think the problem will be with the trumpet for the ducting. You might be able to find something again at the hardware store and fibreglass it onto the inside of the bumper, prior to fitting?

Yeah i had a look in some stores but they all had the plastic stuff, right size but not very strong easy ripped. I'll give paul a shout here see what he has .

 

Thanks j

Can't help with the pipin, but just wanted to say that maybe u'd be better off putting mesh over both holes, or neither. Only saying it coz it might look as though you've lost somthin on the intake side. Just my opinion though, (i like things to match).

Try Demon Tweeks, you can get ducting up to a large size, and also round ally mouths, or plastic ducts. Like this:-

Mate, you need to get youself some spanky bellmouths like me. I havent got around to getting some 2.5" ducting yet, as I solved my over heating issues when I binned my crappy IC. But deffo looks better then all the usual Bomex's with the angel eyes ;)
