Does anyone know of any open element air cleaners that are not polished or chrome, but just black, I dont want the bling look because it will look crappy as my only shiny peice in the engine bay...

That's what I did. I took one of the cheapie chrome ones and scuffed it up with sand paper, cleaned it and then sprayed it black. It's working ok although after 3 years it is due for a repaint. You might also look into powder coating too.
