    Are these airbox retainers available anywhere?



    Missing the retaining things around the filters. Are they available separate from the airbox?

    Also these front bushing things.



    Can't find part numbers for either. Also missing the torx screws for the cover. Any dealer alternative? Maybe in stainless or red?

    I've replaced all of my bushing with silicone hose. The Torx screws are just screws. You can go to any hardware store and purchase new screws. No clue on the air filter brackets.

    They do have a funky thread and a wide head to avoid damaging the carbon fiber.

    There was an air filter assembly on Ebay recently. May want to take a look, might still be there. Fairly reasonable.

    Still something available at a hardware store - or more specifically - one that specializes in fasteners. We have them here, so would think your metropolitan would also.

    Ditto, and failing having 2 dozen laying around, got a part number?
