You would make your own.
Another point that I have been experimenting with COLD AIR intake design is
not to use the fender area as an inlet for air. Between warning air from
the spinning tire/rim and the brakes, this is not a good deal. Running
towards the front portion of the vehicle is the best option.
Another area encountered is under the hood temperature and its effect on the
intake tube from the front. So by using a COLD AIR intake still require
some thermo wrapping of either ceramic material or carbon fiber layer to
protect the tube from engine heat.
However, the best source to keep the air cool would be the A/C lines running
inside the tube or through the tube.

... although, on a second look, the Stage II with the canister looks decent
... except they don't seem to list one for the 4.7L
