Not that I'd ever do it, but most auto parts stores sell the small stick on scoops/vents in several styles. They are for looks only and do not actually function. I can't stress enough I WOULD NOT put them on a motorcycle. But to each his own.

Fiber glass isn't too hard to work with. Mold some hard clay, or shape out of wood or cardboard. Lay the glass leaving a flange all the way around, cut the airbox, glue new scoop on and paint. Pretty simple really.
