Default What to block off lid intake hole with for chrs1313 ram air?

I have a chrs1313 ram air. I've had it for a while now. I used the foam that came with the kit. But I don't like how it looks. What did you guys do to yours? I was thinking of having a nice stainless peice made to put in there. Any ideas?

My old man used some aluminum angle, painted it black, screwed it to the radiator support and then siliconed it to the lid assembly base...looks good for something a little more permanent...

My friend used my cigarette lighter plug from the car to block it. I have no issues.

I assume your talking about the front of the air lid base where the air would normally enter? What I did was get a piece of like 1" diameter rubber hose and stuffed it in there. It has held up really well and looks a ton better than the foam. It was like $2 from Home depot. Here is a picture of it..
