Cool. I think I'll infringe on some of the wheel well space this afternoon.
I think I'll just have a "winter" cover for about 1/2 of the area of my intake; if it gets warm outside, I can alter that easily. Since I had to use the ductwork to make sure the air was reaching the radiator, I'm glad I made it just big enough to accommodate a/c on hot days, and I can always cover it to make it smaller.
This morning I worked on some other simple stuff; removed the passenger wiper and mirror, roof racks (and made some temporary fillers for the holes they left behind), and repositioned the driver's side wiper to the lowest possible position. Pics will be up soon!
