Default Bottom half of airbox?

Does anyone sell just the bottom half of the airbox for the 951 (The part that attaches to the AFM)? I have looked everywhere and no one seems to carry them. The piece itself doesn't show a part number in Auto Atlanta's book, it's only the whole airbox or the top cover. The PO bought a new cover for $120 but all except one of the tabs on the bottom part have broken off and it is not holding together well. I do not want to get a cone filter adapter kit because it would just be sucking hot air in from behind the radiator and intercooler.

If the tabs are not completely gone (usually they just crack and the threaded insert spins freely), you can JB weld the insert to the plastic ears and hit it with some black plastic paint. Otherwise, big Zip Ties work temporarily or if you don't care how it looks.
