    if you mean the black plastic pipe that goes to the head light its the air intake tube that gets air from around the head light, a lot of people run a 3" flex pipe down to the front bumper for beter air flow.

    trust me the 3" pipe works a shat load more than the stock cold air intake....
    if u look at it properly the air has to pass underneath the bonnet, make a sharp 90degree turn, pass the back of the head light and some how make its way into the air box...

    3" pipe comes from underneath the front bar and rammed straight into the box...

    and if u still have the stock SMIC u can do another easy mod to that just by cutting in the plastic wheel arch...
