it's not exactly what you are looking for but I have a one piece flat top chrome plenum cover available. It was made by an awesome chrome company back when the C5 was new, they were called Design Specialties and their items were top notch.
It's in great condition and the only marks on it can not be seen once it's installed. You can see the two rub marks on the photo below.

It no longer fits my Vette since I went to a FAST intake.

Let me know if you want it.

$125 shipped.

no worries, just thought I would throw it out there for you. If you are anywhere near Carlisle, you might have some luck finding one at the fairgrounds next month at the show.
