Post Need Bellows without MAF??

I am planing on removing my MAF and wanted to know what everyone is using as a bellow between the TB and Lid.
I guess I could go to HomeDepot but would like to have something that looks good.

Hey Bill - I'm in the same boat. I just got done with the micrometer on my 85mm MAF. As it turns out, I have one SLP slashed exhaust tip in my parts bin, which ironically has a near identicle ID as the 85mm MAF. I was planning to cut it down and use it inplace of the MAF.

I think I have enough material to fab 2 of these. If this works out ok, and you don't mind splitting the cost of the tip with me, I can send you the other one.

If it doesn't work, I was planning on browsing the plumbing section @ Home Depot.

I already made an insert for mine last night. I used a 3" S&D Coupling PVC part#22733 from Lowe's. It cost $1.08.... I put the SS on it. I had one left over from my calipters. I had to cut the ridge out of the middle and I also painted the outside black. It does not look to bad. See picture. I would still like to have a bellow that went from the lid to the TB. If you find someone that has one please let me know.
