I was hoping to not have it flush with the body but just a bit higher up so it somewhat blends in. Also guess that leaves converting it to a dual exhaust huh?
Also i was just washing my car then and was looking in the engine bay to try move the snorkle, well get rid of it for now that wraps around the front, and the screws holding the radiator cover in place don't really want to come off, am i just stupid or is something besides a phillips head needed there?
I'm going to need to remove it soon anyway when i get the K&N apollo i ordered but figured i'd give myself a head start and a bit of a nicer intake for the meantime.

It can probably be cut slightly and have the pipe raised a bit but you wouldn't really be able to raise it much and then there's the issue of the width of the tip you choose to have fitted and the heat from it melting into the bar. You might be able to fit dual pipes on it but you wouldn't gain anything from it performance wise and they would need to be fairly close together in the centre of the bar and might look a bit odd. I considered doing similar earlier but decided against it.
As far as the plastic screws on that cover are concerned try using a small flat screwdriver (a jewellers screwdriver is best) and gently prize up under the head of the screw as you unscrew it. I'm pretty sure you'll find they have a plastic clip in base that they screw into, when you refit them the plastic screw should be unscrewed all the way so the base part fits back in the hole then the just press in the screw with your thumb, they usually make a clicking sound as you press them in.
