Lower airbox upgrade?

Post by WookieNugget »

My 07' R56S has the DDMWorks RIS installed which makes use of the hood scoop to pressurize the airbox. 2 of the 3 screw holes on the forward side of the lower half of my airbox are broken so only 1 screw is holding the top on. Also 1 of the plastic tabs in the back is broken so I've lost 1/3 of my aft side retention as well. I'm looking to purchase just the lower half of an airbox but can't seem to find one so I may have to buy the whole thing. Does anyone know of an aftermarket aluminum (or other non-plastic material) upgrade for the lower half of the factory airbox? I'd like to go ahead and get a part that won't break in the same places in the future... If such a part exists that is. Thanks for any info and/or advice!
