Default Del sol velocity stacks

I have a 93 del sol and i want to run 2 velocity stacks in the fog light spots. My problem is that the hole is 4 in wide and all the stacks i see have 6 in tops. Does anyone know where i can find one that will fit?.

Thanks

If they're just there to "move air into the bay", they aren't velocity stacks. Just FYI. Also, a Google search for "4" velocity stack" finds a LOT of results.

Considering location, you would still be leaving the realm of "velocity stack" and entering the realm of "ram air". Do you track the car at all, or is it all just for hard parking? If your car sees track use at all, the best thing to do with those stacks would be to duct the air to your brakes. Without a retune, you wouldn't really see any power gains from drawing the colder air in. Without proper filtration in the pipe, you would also be drastically exposing your turbine to rocks and other road debris. I'd take cooler brakes over 2whp any day of the week.
