I thought the same thing - heck I have some I could send.
But maybe he doesnt like the high cost of shipping and you know all the ebay ones are cheap to buy but they charge you 20+ to ship in the US, imagine what they would charge him - it would be ugly, then import tax.
I prefer to make my own as well - more fun. Not cheaper, but certainly more fun.
Most of what I do has a nice taper from the Filter mouth (round) to the AFM (square).
In the end I find I would rather pitch the AFM all together and go with a MAF and cold air intake pipe with secondary air resevoir.
I also like dual plenum manifolds - but I am a nut when it comes to re-engineering the car and tweaking it to my taste.
I really like the AUDI style - Rally Dual Plenum - that is what I build when I am building something custom - equalize the air flow - beautiful setup - with a MAF or MAP - and preferably boost...
In anycase Not one to install just a cone filter in the car - have to get cold air to it and shield it from heat soak. You want to gain performance not loose it and with cone filters that can be difficult.
A heat Shield is very do -able and easy to fab., so is a cold air snorkle to feed the filter - or put filter an end of snorkle for the ram air/cold air setup.
