    Has anyone found any good solutions for protecting the intake in the fender well after adding fiber glass fender? i dont really care if its a fully covered fender well, just looking for a way to not rock a fully exposed intake.

    Mine have been fitted and are being painted now. Final long travel parts get in Thursday. I have looked this up in the past and i never seem to find a solution. Seems like most people just run them open.

    If you are going fiberglass fender, maybe look into modding a snorkel that would fit- would probably solve your issue and they look awesome on Tundras

    im not a good one to ask because I added a bunch of stuff. I’ll probably be 6k or so all in. A good chunk was figment, lines and trimming were done perfect and it looks factory, took a good bit of work. We sprayed inside with a bed liner type material. We painted entire truck except for roof (instead of blending cab and doors had him do this because doors has chips and scratches, and front was a little off from grille surround to hood so we corrected) and did a clear bra. Could have gotten cost way down but I don’t have time to do any of it myself and had them do a lot of extra stuff. If you have time you can hang everything and get it pretty close yourself.

    On my 4Runner when I chopped the fenders and ran everything open I just slipped a pre-filter over the intake portion that stuck out into the wheel well. This was just a cheap, and very quick, idea that I came up with.

    Other ideas I’ve seen were cut up trash can plastics to form a shield along the perimeter of the wheel well. L-brackets to hold them on. This one also protects the paint on the inside of the fiberglass fenders from chipping.

    The air injection pump intakes will be exposed too with a LT setup. I recommend this kit from SDHQ....https://sdhqoffroad.com/products/07...uilt-secondary-air-pump-intake-relocation-kit

    I made an invisible snorkel. I didn’t want anything sticking out and catching on trees and shit.

    it draws from the cowl like an old muscle car.

    my wife and I dumped two five gallon buckets on the windshield at the same time to try and simulate a big splash like we often hit during the monsoons in AZ. Bone dry.

    I'll try and get ya some pics tomorrow. But, basically I cut up the OEM liner, pushed it farther up and have a cone filter mounted high up in the wheel well.

    It's hard to see but the metal fitting next to the filter has a tab that's bolted to the inner fender. The whole thing is an Injen intake with a couple pieces added to make it longer
