Yep I got mine from Spectre too. Spectre has couplers and filters too, along with pretty much any other intake piece you'd need. Try to find it locally because paying $5-10 shipping for something that's $15 is annoying. Can't remember where I found the best price online, might have been Amazon actually.

Yeah I got a metal one from them. Got to their website (spectreperformance.com) and find the part number for the tube(s) you want, and then search for those. I did just a quick search and streetsideauto.com has good prices if you want to order online.

I think they carry different styles, but if you go to:

www.spectreperformance.com- you can click on catalog, then modular components- you'll see what they have.

The ones that say "chrome" are the ones that are the chrome looking plastic

The ones that say "aluminum" are actual polished metal- thats what I got.

Maybe your autozone can order them if they have access to some of the product line already.
