Default Ram Air Box

The guy that had my Formula Firebird before me put the ram air hood on it along with some kind of shitty excuse for an air box. It has so much gap between the filter and housing that it might as well not have a filter. Where can I get the bottom stock ram air box besides ramairhood.com?

You sure it isn't just missing the tray insert?

No, it's some piece of crap. I don't even have the stock ram air bottom piece it's some after market no name thing. I went to five different auto parts stores and no one has a filter that is even close to fitting nor can they order one. I just want to get the stock bottom with the smooth air lid so I don't have to worry about it.

Well guys, thanks for your input but, I ended up going for the K&N FIPK. Solves all of my problems and adds a decent amount of HP.
