CAI intake with foglights

I don't know if this has been discussed before I'm just so tired of putting my bumper back together and the filter is always in the way. I have a DC Sport CAI. Anything suggestion ..maybe a smaller filter?

what op is trying to say is that the DC sport CAI filter pushes the bumper out a bit and wants to know if there are a smaller filter that will fit on the CAI that wont push the bumper out, right???

^ measure the one you have on and compare it this one or you can cut the DC sport intake to make it fit better.

I have the dc sports intake as well and noticed that the vibration mount is what pushes the intake out and then pushes the bumper out . Take the vibration mount out and replace with a bolt and a few rubber washers . I used some foam around intake opening to protect the wires and the intake from rubbing . That let the intake sit closer to frame and let the bumper fit the way it should . You could also shorten the pipe and use a different filter oorrrr use the stock intake again .

You can cut a few inches off the end of the CAI then put the filter back on to give you a little more clearance. Thats what I had to with mine.
