You can always get a Kenne Bell supercharger and that will relocate the intake.

I have the same intake and this question comes up. There is about a 1.5" space on the front of the box/heat shield. Locate the hood stop in the lower right hand corner of your picture. That height of the stop and the unsealed area of the leading edge of the box is the gap that allows fresh air in.

We have a winner! Yes, air is coming in from the gap between the hood and headlights. This is why most hoods will shake at high speeds.........

I thought the hoods shake because there is too much air getting in there at high speeds and it is trying to get out...
but without a straight shot to outside air it seems like the stock Bullitt intake will be drawing in at least some warm air from the engine bay.
