Smooth Bellow or Menards? Hi everyone,
I'm sick of the accordion style intake between the lid and TB. It seems to not fit like it used to, so I'm going to ditch it and go for a smooth bellow. But, I know there must be some **** at Menards that will do just as well for me as the $60 piece of rubber (smooth bellow) you can buy from SLP. Can you please guide me in the right direction?

There is really no gain here, the air bellow is too short of a run on these cars for a smooth piece to actually provide any gains. The aftermarket ones are a waste, and usually just make it harder to get the lid to fit properly since they don't have the same level of flexibility. Personally I would stick with the stock bellow, or try to find a nice used one if your stock one is damaged.

I wasn't looking for a gain. I just want something that has a tighter fit and looks better. And I don't really want to go through the hassle of finding a stock one from someone or do any shipping etc.
