The car is standard height has a set of 17's on aswell , looking to swop the 17,s tho have them on gumtree need it lower.
its actually not a complete pipe it is the flex pipe you get - the bending type one - just to help supply cooler air cuz since i pt the branch in the engine bay is alot warmer then before - also looking at heat wraping the branch in the future want the car to breath better you know

You have to cut them out. I cut mine out, but then I realized it was a mistake, cause I now have a CAI setup and my filter sits at the bottom now and you can see it through the hole. Will probably have the covers plastic welded in again.
