Default Home Depot Bellow?

A while back I saw somebody who bought some tubing of some sort from home depot and it worked like a smoothed bellow. I was just wondering if anybody knew of that thread or what I need to buy.

They make rubber couplers for plumbing I believe. They have straight connectors and reducers, it all depends on you TB and stuff (not sure what Fbodys have, I'm a C5 guy)

I think its like 3x3 I have one on my car. It is a very tight fit kind of a PITA to install but it looks good. Might try heating it up to get on that might make it easier.
