Default Blackwing

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this kind of thing.

I am trying to find a Blackwing lid with the rubber boot. I know they are fairly hard to find, so I am willing to pay a little more than a normal lid.

If anybody knows of one for sale, or knows a link to any shops that still sell them, please let me know.

I have pay-pal if you are an interested seller.

Very hard product to find these days, & if you do, ..., it comes at a premium.
If you bid against me in Ebay, be prepared to pay over $300+ for one! LoL, ...

I bought mine new for a stock look and I love it. I think it was like $150 or something? But didn't know they stopped making them. All these quality pieces not available anymore...BG ram air, blackwing lid.

What are so good about these, compared to an SLP lid or something. I've also seen the Blackwing air filters, I've had thoughts about ordering me one.

OEM quality and fit. That was enough reason for me to get two of them.

KK.. Can someone please post a pic of a Blackwing. I searched google Blackwing Air Lid and it shows up as the same exact lid that is on my Firehawk. I'm more then sure that I don't have a Blackwing lid. Just wanna see what a Blackwing lid looks like incase I run across one some day.

Just curious where you found two at and really why you would need more than one? I'd take one for $190 too.
