ALTA Performance blue air duct

Just joined the forum with a 2005 S with JCW aero + a couple of other items:

I got the car with an ALTA Performance air filter and duct. After cleaning and oiling the air filter, I noted that it was hard to replace the blue air duct - ALTA made the duct with the wrong angle for the 1/2 hose that goes into the larger duct.

If any of you had this problem, there is an easy fix: make a 45 degree hose coupler with 3/8 copper.
