Default Ram-air?

I was thinking today, that a ram-air setup would be kinda cool. It would probably not do anything for performance but ive always loved those setups. Anyway i was thinking about making a custom setup from the lower grill to the airbox/cone or something.

so my question is:

has anybody ever done anything with ram air(not through the hood) for our s197?

pics, how-to's, or comments all welcome

Thanks!

Try this Agent 47 Ram Air System

I have thought If you have a GT front end you might fab up another Ram Air System using there Lower Grill and The Items for the Brake Cooling System.

I played around with this a few months ago.. I figured a Cold Air Intake deserves a little cold air..

Just above the chin spoiler where the lower bumper grill is cut out, you can see the black hose that leads up to the CAI. it probably doesn't do anything but help my CAI get dirty... but it was a fun little project.
