Oddly enough I like the looks of the Safari better. And though it is running down the fender I don't really see that as a huge problem. IE: if you hit something hard enough in that area to break the snorkel you probably have bigger problems. While I do like the steel construction of the Mantec and the way it is hidden behind the fender I don't like the look of the cut in, that it requires removal of the fender and mainly the flex pipe that ends up being hidden behind the fender and will likely never be checked again. My concern is that in our heat the duct goes to heck in a year, one doesn't think of it and then when you are running across water and really need it you end up slamming water up into the air box. And for those of you that think that it never rains in Arizona I can tell you that I have a dry wash that runs thru the front of my property, bone dry 50 weeks of the year. 2 weeks ago it was running almost 3 foot deep. When it rains here is Noahic, the rest of the time it is hotter than blazes and dusty.

It also draws in air from higher up which is arguably cleaner/contains less dust.

if I could have found a mantec cheap like that I would have done it, the safari looks cool and functions fine, but black plastic baking in the sun just imo makes the intake air temp higher then needs to be
I do agree sticking off the fender is not an issue, if you are that close to something you should have figured a better approach angle, I have yet to bash a body panel offroading in any vehicle, just think things through and move with a purpose
probly just pissed off the rover gods need to make a sacrifice lol

Yes that's mud on my roof rack rail. The entire rack was pushed back about an inch from digging into the bank
Also broke the passenger side mirror and front passenger window deflector, and opened up about a 1" gap between the passenger rear corner panel and quarter panel. Ugh
