Hello all, having taken off the front bumper to repaint, it appears that the airbox, which houses the air filter, is held together with cable ties. Apparently these are not available new so wondered if anyone had a decent spare available?

Intetesting. So is that another route, just replace with an aftermarket filter? Is there a kit?

No kit. There are a few members that have already done the conversion. @2b1ask1 was one and i think @todd.the.submariner was another.

From memory its a kn oil free cone filter. Approx 2 ft of silicone hose of the correct diameters and i think its 3 clamps.

Pretty sure tod posted some pictures if you search his posts.

The Trofeo edition cars had this set up IIRC as well.

Yep; the upgrade to that is to build a splash guard to sit in front of the filter to protect the front from the lower bumper opening. Don’t close the opening just prevent direct water to the filter.

If you want any more info, let me know. And no splash shield is required since the filer sits well above the splitter intake.
