96 SS ram air CAI... filter cover replacement?

I have the SS ram air CAI... but my filter cover is really old.. it's cracked and ent out of shape... but the CAI itself is still really good... where can I buy a replacement cover and not the entire set? If I wasn't clear on something just let me know.. thanks

EDIT: I just checked SLP and they list a bunch of replacement stuff relating to the Air Box... but nothing sounds like what I'm looking for.. what exactly is it called? I want the part that comes off to remove the filter and that the clips hold down.. is that the air box seal? thanks

Trevor

I'd suggest that you contact SLP directly for that SLP made part.

Ok.. I'll just call them up and ask.. they should know what I'm talking about... I know not a lot of people have this CAI but does anyone else know before I phone? Thanks

Let me know how much they want for the lid and clamps. I may be able to help you.

Well for the clips they want $2.50 (for the set of two) and assuming the "Air Box Seal" is the lid then they want $25.58 for that...

Well, that's not bad. I picked up a couple of clips for less than a buck a piece at my local dealer.

No. You should have no trouble getting one from SLP, and at that price for something as peculiar as the box lid, I'd say you're doing alright.

If you can't get one for one reason or another, let me know.

FYI, even new ones are warped to a degree.

Make sure when you order anything from SLP that you are ordering from the place they HAVE them.

Sometimes things get lost in the prcess of ordering from one place and getting it shipped from another. JMHO
