Default Bumper MOD??

I know this is more of a performance mod than an appearance mod. I would like to know if anyone has some pics of a LS1 camaro with the ram air holes cut into the front bumper? I can pretty much get the cutting the holes in the impact foam, but I don't know how to hook up the duct work to the bottom of the air box. Any help and pics would be greatly appreciated!!

I wouldnt reccomend it if you drive your car in the rain, unless you are installing baffles to keep water out.

i drove mine in heavy rain before and never had any problems. i used lil less than 3' of 2" tubing (two pieces per side, 4 total). zip tie each side pair together. cut bottom of the lid tray out and it will just squeeze in there. same goes for the foam. dremel out the foam. easy $5 mod.
