Air intake ducting

Also on the theme of having cold air flow through the bumper, I wanted to provide better ducted air into the space where the air filter is. Trouble is that there is a bit of metal that sits in the way.



So, a bit of work with a jigsaw (and some more work with a handsaw ) and the piece of metal disappears



Now, I haven't been able to drive around much to see if it has had any effect, but I'm hoping that it will help lower the temperature of the air into the engine and find another pony or two
