Default CF B series intake other than whale *****?

Just wondering IF anyone knows of a company that makes CF B series intake for my integra, and that's not the ugly whale *****? I want to use my Comptech Icebox with this intake, so maybe I half to custom make it?? sense I cant find a normal cf intake...

Can anyone help me out, or head me in the right direction to get this done.

So, cosmetics is the only priority here, why not simply use a generic ebay metal intake (connected to the icebox) and wrap it in CF yourself?

I know of no CF intake that isn't shaped with a bulge in the middle. Maybe someone else does.

I dont have the necessary supplies to wrap cf, I know its a bitch to do though. I only want cf one, cause it will match my cf spark plug cover. Thought it would tie the engine bay nicely together..plus I never seen cf intake arm with Icebox, it would look stealth.

my custom spark plug cover is real cf, not wrapped in sticker, thats the difference, if its to much of an hassel, I'll just get the comptech intake a say F it.. great ideal but I'm tired in searching for it, or a place to make it.

Please report back if you decide to try that.

I've known such things were available, but never had the guts to try making use of them for anything.

And if you use it over a metal tube, you don't have to worry about structural integrity either.

If it's made well he shouldn't have to worry about structural integrity. CF is strong as an ox (if it's done correctly).
