I'll second that recommendation.

I prefer this setup as well. It's much less involved than building a box too.

Definitely not a preferred setup. While BARELY a step above just tossing a filter on the end of the AFM and leaving it open to the engine bay you're still leaving it open to the engine bay heat while the vehicle is at rest when the worst heat soak occurs. Depending on the number of bends and their angle you're probably not seeing any benefit that you would see by simply removing the passenger side fog light and forgetting the duct.
