Default Help Please on missing part

I just bought a used blackwing and am trying to install right now. I am missing the 4'' rubber connector for it. (I have a 01 c5 coupe)Is there any where I can get one or make one? Any advice would be much appreciated do to the fact I have the OE air bridge and filter already out of the car. Thanks

call some of the vendors on the forum that carries the blackwing and they might be able to help you.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

Home Depot does carry 4" black rubber plumbing connectors. That should work until you can replace it with a silicone connector
