If your under the hood temps get hot enough to melt PVC then you have bigger problems to worry about other than your fender well intake melting.

Sorry I've never tried it before I've just read that its a bad idea to use pvc cause it will melt.

so i made this and its freakin awesome; but i cut out a small portion of the wheel well also. does anyone think that it will suck in brake dust or any thing that will hurt my engine? i just think i will have to clean the filter a lot, but any suggestions would be good.

what size pipe did you use and did you have trouble installing without cutting anything. I really don't want to hack away at anything on my 00' gp gt.
