So today, I decided to go to home depot and buy a strip of aluminum. They sell 4'x1"x1/4" strips of aluminum for about $5. I bought one and just bent it in the shape I needed and cut it down to size. It took about 30-45 mins to do and only cost $5. I think I'm gonna remove it and paint it black next weekend. Here are some pics of how it looks:

I had this exact problem with the AEM intake which is why I opted to go back to the stock pipe and new filter. Maybe you should try swapping out the filter with a different one and see if that makes a difference.
