fixing hacked airbox

Well after hacking the bottom of my airbox and having it on for awhile, Id rather it be stock sounding again. I dont have the plastic that I orginally cut out of the box so I was trying to come up with ideas on what to cover the hole with. I thought maybe cutting a random piece of plastic and then gluing it or melting the plastic together a little to make it more secure. Anybody have any better suggestions? Anybody know how much an airbox goes for at a junkyard?

I just got an extra airbox before I hacked mine. You should be able to find one in the for sale section or at a junk yard for cheap.

im sure there are plenty of people on the org who'd be willing to part ways with their stock air box... also try junkyards, I would think no more than $10.00 for the lower airbox if you go there

What do you mean you don't like the sound? How does it sound?

It just a deeper sound, definatlty quieter than any other intakes. Its not like its a bad noise, you can only really hear it when you step on the gas or outside of the car. I dunno after having this for awhile and then driving my friends stock maxima I thought Id like to try the quiet sound again
