    I'm sure you could get it to work..but the passenger side bracket may need to be modified for clearance

    I think there are plenty of people that would look at it as a plus having a snorkel already on the truck. If you wanted a factory fender you could probably post up for a trade and somebody that is wanting a snorkel would swap you out fender for fender

    Just wait till the Bro snorkel hits. It will make the value of your snorkel’d truck increase lol

    I would think it would be more like $800

    Besides if you wait a few years could probably find it used from a wrecker like side right off etc.

    I know I did the same for my old GTI. Got a colour matched fender for $150 and just had to install it.

    I like the way they look but I noe liked that bulky front intake...the one on my old pathfinder was a nice design that wouldn't get snagged on anything.
