Angry JWT install problem, missing OEM air duct

received my JWT Pop charger and had some free time to install....BUT my effing stock air duct is missing. I swear I just saw it there a few weeks ago when I was scanning the engine bay as to have my game plan ready for install.

Well apparently it grew legs and walked off So I can't drill the holes needed for the heat shield to stay put. So does anybody know where I can buy one?? I checked courtesy Nissan's webiste but I couldn't find it. I tried ebay and tried googling for it.

Need your help guys.

It will be trapped in the undertray, can't fall out. Also its not really needed , the pich bolts will hold the heat shield in place. Mine is not drilled in , been like that for almost 4 years.

As terrasmak said, you don't really need that air guide for the popcharger heatshield - the heatshield mounting bolts will hold it in place. IF you HAVE to have it, I think dealer charge is around $100 (believe it or not - ha!). I remember finding it on an online Nissan discount part site for around $65 or so. Found the site: http://www.nissanpartsdirect.com/oempartscat.html it's part #12 under the "Radiator Support" area of the OEM parts....$66.11

Thanks guys! I couldn't figure out the actual name, I'm also blind as a bat. I'll probably search for it in the undertray. I'll just install it either way.

Thanks again and happy holidays.
