For those of you with foglights and full air intake!

I notice that the left foglight touches the air filter from the intake, not by much but is touching it, i do not hear or notice anything different with the car and i was just wondering if anyone has notice this?

You can check on your car by looking right under the left foglight, there should be a circle under the bumper are where you can look and see if yours is touching, do not try to look from above because you will not see anything touching..

Are you talking about a cold air intake? a CAI filter should sit at the same spot as the airbox that used to be there with the stock intake. I have the injen and it did not come close to the stock foglamp. Now with the fog light retro I had to push back the fileter to make room.
