Exclamation WTB: MAF housing!! Please Help!!!

Help PLEASE!!! I am a total idiot, I am in need of a MAF Housing for a G35 coupe, although I am sure they are the same for both the coupe and sedan.
I was installing a Pop Charger and accidently cracked the bottom two bolt brackets on the housing.

So to anyone out there who has installed a CAI and has this piece laying around please help me out! Infinity / Nissan says that I can only buy it with the MAF which means they want my first born child

please PM, or post as I will be checking this often. Thank you!

Every car needs the MAF, even with a CAI, so it's not a part that someone is likely going to have an extra one of. You need to call some junk yards.

Here is a picture (I hope this works b/c I've never done this before) of an installed Pop Charger with the MAF Housing circled in RED.

I don't need MAF, just the housing to answer the comment before. Don't most CAI's have thier own mounts for the MAF?

That's what I have done for now, but I don't think it will last very long. I snapped off the bottom two brackets that allow it to be bolted onto the air filter.
I feel like such an idiot....

That is what I have done as a temporary fix, but b/c of where it snapped off I don't think it will last very long

Well there's a chance I might be able to help. I bought a stillen intake from a local guy and it included the Z tube and extra maf housing. Now this is where it gets odd. He chemcially boned the Z tube and maf housing. Don't ask me why. Now I don't have any particular need for either. I have both. But since this was from a FX35, I'm not 100% the way he bonded everything will fit the G. I suspect it will but again, I haven't tried it. I'd be willing to sell you both. But I'd like to actually try to fit before I really offer it.

Sound doable?

I dunn either. I was only interested in the Stillen intake and he gave this to me anyway. All it does is eliminate one clamp. Odd.

I had a chance to look at it today. Odd thing. It's a diff shape than my early 03 sedan. It's like this(pic from the JWT intake thread): See where the "N" is? There are two sets of p/ns.
22680 ca000 and under AFH70-36.

The good thing is this wasn't glued to the Z tube, it's by itself. Let me know if this will work for ya!
