Which is more likely to be the victim of dousing?

Edit: My FW molding is cracked and has a hole in it, and was still dry.

ok heres some more info. I live in the country on gravel. Theres lots of snow, ice, and wet roads. so I need something that wont be affected too much by the elements. Thats why I thought that the CAI would be a better option, but after hearing that the FWI is protected more on the 00+, its definitely an option also. I am still leaning towards the CAI though.

I'm now looking into this as well. It'* been a few months since the last post. But I want to see the FWI and the Thrasher CAI in someones vehicle (00+). I'm interested in looks as well as functionality. What about the PCM relocation is it protected from the elements as well. I too am leaning towards the thrasher unit.
