Default Ram air help!

I bought my car with the slp ram air already on it, but it did not have the long rubber piece that goes under the lid and lower air box, its probably about 18 inches long... I called slp to see if I could just buy that and they said it would cost me $25! for a f-ing piece of rubber! I went to a local auto store and the closest things they had were those rubber things u stick on the outside of your door so u wont ding peoples cars up in the parking lot... but they were in little 8 inch pieces so I had to cut them up and stick them in there but now Ive lost one, I guess it fell out while I was driving, its not under my air filter thats all I know, and one is about to come out... is there anywhere else I can get that one rubber piece (notice I said one, so I wont have to deal with the multiple pieces again) at a reasonable price? Or should I just bow down to slp and pay that ridiculous price?

oh you mean somthing to put under the lower airbox to seal it?


I used black pipe insulation that from Home Depot

the type I got actually already had a glue substance on it on the ends, made it real easy to use.

costed me like 2 dollars.
