I tried to adhere to the KISS principle during the whole development process for this mod.

This is what I found from the Homedepot site. Would this work? is it the same thing as Lowe's. Looks different.

Have a look

I don't think it will fit the outside diameter of the female coupler. That transition is meant to fit the outside diameter of 4 inch pipe. You may be able to order the downspout connector over the web.

It's kinda similar, but not the same. The thing at Lowes is a PVC connector. The reducing coupler you found at Home Depot is rubber. I don't think it will fit into the fender hole.

I think if you don't have a Lowes nearby and you want to make the mod using the approach kd4crs did, you should order the Lowes part over the internet.
