you want to save some money? skip the cai. the stock airbox already pulls out of the fender and works just fine if you throw a k & n in. just my .02.

I'd do a fender mount, but if it rains alot there it might be better to have in under the hood. The fender mount should give you more cooler air, instead of hot air from the engine.
