Just a quikie to all of you with CAI's, whats the best tool/s needed to make the hole in the fender for the air filter. I dont think anyone makes a drill bit that will drill a 3" hole. I want to install my CAI this weekend.

You can get that hole saw from any hardware store. I'm pretty sure it comes with the bit as well. Good luck and let us know how it goes!
