yeah... you turn the wheel to the right all the way and pull the fender liner off, then you can rip apart the stock plastic shit in the fenderwell.

That's what I do with mine when I go to the track.
4 bolts under the bumper, 2 on the body behind the wheel, one up top.
3 body pins as well. remove headlight and push from inside the fenderliner

nah that autozone shits plastic and super gay. My buddy used that stuff and no offence, we all dubbed him Corrolla Racing after that, just buy a V6 CAI and a coupler, thats it. once u see it itll make sense. and just a heads up that lower stock box is a PITA

that lower box was by far the bigest PITA, I made the mistake of takeing it on after working 20+ houres and only getting 3 houres of sleep, I thought it would be easy as eating pie, but it was more like eating pie with razorblades in it.

There wouldnt be a down side to a pvc cai, other than how goofy it would be. If you paint it, it wouldnt look too bad, personally I wouldnt do it, I would find some metal tubing and fab something up, or go to autozone and get that flex tube stuff.

it's just a 90 degree aluminum bend out of whatever OD you're using for the other stuff, and a straight silicone coupler.
