Default Clear lid?

I have had an SLP lid forever, but i think i wanna change to the clear lid for aesthetic reasons, but now i cant find one. seems like mti used to make one, then someone else picked it up maybe?
i searched around some and saw FTP had one at one time it looks like, but i no longer see one on their catalog. its been forever since ive looked in this section too lol. man time flies.

I've had my MTI clear lid on for 4 years and not one crack yet. I sold the K&N cold air intake to buy it before MTI went out of business. To the OP just gotta keep an eye out in the classifieds section I've seen some used ones for sale in the past.

Oh wow I've been looking into getting a clear lid too and didn't think of speed inc i was just about to order one from another web site for like $130 but i am defiantly ordering from them now ($20 cheaper).

P.S. a quick google search could find you a coupon for an additional %5 off on top of their free shipping over $100 orders

$104.49 shipped to my door
