you could pressure test it yourself if you cap off ends and use an air compressor and a tub of water
not too hightech, but it will work. i dont know exactly how much pressure to test it to, but id think around 30lbs would be all you would ever put through it, thus would be enough.
RS4 grills are available from a number of tuners. call around

another idea..
cap off both ends . on one end try to find a way to put a wheel valve and fill the fmic with air and monitor the pressure with a tire pressure gauge and see if it leaks.
i want to do that with a pressure tester for the entire intake system since the gauge from an air compressor is too hight (starts @ 20 psi) and not accurate ..
just my 2 cents.

unless there's damage on the back from punctures, it looks good....too bad about those mounts.
I just got off the phone from Achtuning because i'm looking for one without the pipes and the mounts...custom project!

You should probably invest in a compressor and Awe Pressure Tester...
then you can do all this yourself very easily. I'll be buying these items myself soon and would help you out if you lived in NorCal.
