Wow.. that is steep!!
I saw a kit for $215 that claimed it will fit 11-13... I am looking for a kit that will include the proper replacement opening in the front. Not something I will have to modify to fit. I have a huntch a generic kit might require modifying to fit.

Not sure if there is a huge difference in the faux fog light construction on the '13s but you could always get a set of ducts from Kenny Brown and then just cut the faux fog holes out and run pipe up to them. That is what I did with my '12 instead of the getting the FRPP kit that looks like it comes with NACA ducts to replace the fogs.

There is a big difference in the fog light inserts and the brake duct inserts. The duct inserts have a steel inlet tube bolted to the visible plastic fascia piece to which the high-temp duct attaches.

When I put them on the LS I was very happy with the fit and ease of installation. It appears that they heard all the b*****in' and moanin' from the 2012 guys and came up with a nice package for the 13's. The only modification I made outside of the parts supplied was to remove one piece of plastictrim in the driver's side wheel well to allow the duct to be zip-tied to the sway bar. No cutting, no cussing.

Just buying brake spindle duct plates and 4" high-temp hose for my race car was around $250 and I fabricated the inlet pieces myself for the GT500 fog light openings. The 2013's wouldn't be that easy.

How did you get the washer fluid bottle in with out crushing the hose some? Right now I'm running without the bottle.

You can try putting thick spacers between the frame and the bottle, one guy did that and it worked. On my '12 after shaving the little fins on the inside of the lip I didn't really need to fiddle with anything else and the hose is for all intents and purpose straight.
