Snorkel with Fiberglass fenders

Like the name suggests, is it possible to run a snorkel with fiberglass fenders.
I know anything is possible, but how difficult are we talking?

I've seen guys do it on TW on their Tacomas. I think it just requires a lot of heat gun work to get it to fit right and the right snorkel. I think the airflow snorkel that sits further back on the fender (vs the lc80 that is almost parallel with the stock hole) seems to be the easier one to work with but I'm not sure how that would translate to the t4r fender.

The only way is to have someone make a custom 3" pipe and TIG weld a bunch of pie pieces to get the correct routing and attach a 4" to 3" rubber or silicone 90 degree bend hose to the OEM filter box hole. Several Aussies do the custom piping. There's a Desert Tan Tacoma also with fiberglass fenders that has a custom TIG welded snorkel pipe. Add a Donaldson Topspin or Sy-Clone 9000 Series Prefilter/Precleaner to the top of the snorkel tube to minimize debris and rain water from entering the intake.
