   I wouldnt put a air intake in your fog light hole as it is just to lower to the ground and your air filter could suck up water through it.

   yeah they can, but unless you drive through a MASSIVE puddle you would more than likely be fine.

   i know what you mean with water olly, but i cant see water gettin up the pipes to the engine or to the airfilter, as it would have to travel upwards quite abit

    I've had cold air feeds running from the fog light holes before and never had a problem with water.
    
    I would just cut an existing foggy out as already suggested

    My air intake is lower than the fog's, it's under the front splitter. I don't have problems with water.
