Don't think you would have a problem on the left side. The right side. you don't have enough room because of the washer reservoir. It's a TIGHT fit.

If you want to see more pictures. Look in my journal.
looks awesome bro! I hope you and I can do what we talked about soon!

Well, the Nissan cold air kit came with a new fluid resivor that was relocated towards the center of the bumper support. I had issues with the oil lines and the lower intake tube on the right side not fitting together but we got it to work. I guess I can sell the hose kit if it does not fit, but putting holes in the bumper can't be reversed.

Just came across this picture on google. Was looking for something else. Thought I would post it. . Different shape, round. Would be easier to make and install.
