would you cut this piece of metal?

Im doing the plumbing for a fenderwell intake on my GP, and theres 2 pieces of metal in my way. Not sure what they are there for, but theyre in the way of the drier hose that im trying to use. would you cut these pieces of metal, or just leave them alone and say **** it?





This is what itll look like under the hood:



and heres the 9" K&N down in the fender

From the looks of it that's part of your radiator support. I probably wouldn't cut the whole thing off, maybe cut a hole instead.

Id say cut no further than those two holes seen in that second pic. Almost like connect the dots, but judge on the width. I agree with Steve, I wouldnt cut the hole thing off.
