I don't know about the wheel well. the most common way is to put it into the side of the radiator housing. I've been thinking of doing this myself and trying to figure out how I want to do it.

EFI cold air draws through Mariah NACA duct on top of headlight lid:


Uses stock duct materials and other than needing to chop out part of the rubber water dam, it works great, straight shot to the K&N in the stock airbox.
