Question Mines CF intake scoop

Anyone know of an easy way to get a Mines CF Intake scoop? I have the C-West N1 bumper - I think it will fit. I just fear the $500.00 price tag to buy the scoop - not including shipping. Any ideas?

you can take a look at the varis one, i think that one is only like $150-160. it loks almost the same, but the mine's one looks like it it is dry carbon.

I dont get it...the cwest n1 front bumper is already vented. You might want to double check the slope of the oem bumper and the n1 since the air ducts aren't flexible that. anyways to me i think its over kill to cut up the n1. if the main purpose was to guide the air to the intake then use som sort of duct work so you'll have the ram air effect.

I have the Vortech SC, and a Blitz filter with the lil hole in the center - I think the scoop will efficiently channel the air into the filter, moreso than just the front vent. And the Mines scoop looks cool - im sure I can work it into the bumper. I have 2 N1 bumpers - the original and a cf duplicate. The filter is dead infront of the vent itself. Just trying new things. Thank goodness ive been successful with most of my mods to date. You guys sound way critical
