I have a set, some kind of composite material, inside opening is larger than stock, not sure where I got them from or if the company still makes them. I could let you have mine for $60 shipped if your interested, but you would have to wait at least a month. Going in for surgery on Mon. and not sure how long before I'm up and about. Maybe someone else can help you out.

Granatelli Motor Sports makes plastic ends. Usually in the $80 range. My only warning there after using a set is my may have to mod your center section just a bit for proper fit, and the 2 sets i have bought have had a pretty rough finish in spots on the inside. I bought them only for track use: 2 reasons 1) lighter weight 2) avoid heat soak

Unless you know what you are doing leave the MAF stock, otherwise all you will accomplish is screwing up a precision measuring device.

ps
be advised you may need a tune on your computer after install as the air flow changes way up. Like porting the MAF. Just my expierence.
