Default BBK CAI

went to install my BBK CAI and there are no grommets on the frame to install the metal piece into the grommets for the tube to go into the wheel well. Any ideas??? i tried to google the grommets and no luck!! thanks for any info. I'm thinking supergle metal to metal but rather have a better suggestion.

metal screws? small hole and self tapping metal screws is what I would probably end up doing. It'd be better then glue as you could uninstall and install much easier.

I dont think glue would hold it very long to be honest. There should have been something in the box. I've put on a few BBK CAI's and had all the parts for an easy install.

They weren't attached to the bottom of the stock air box you pulled out?
I'm sure the Ford dealer would be able to get those.

+1 they should have been on the stock airbox?

Anyway, should have got a K+N filter and left your stock CAI on... too late for that.
