Try the Injen website, call your local auto parts store

Or get a K&N filter to put in it- again the auto parts store.

It always helps if you describe the part and have a number for it when you ask for help
Is it foam or paper or fabric?

wheel well

did you try removing the front tire & the wheel well cover? I think that is the easiest way.

Air filter location

OK, so I'm no mechanic, but I thought I could find the air filter on my own so I could swap the factory filter with a K&N.

Where is the darn thing, and how do I access it? Would I really have to take off the front wheel to get at it?

taking out the fender is necessary if you have an aftermarket cold air intake. the stock one is on the driver side in the engine hood. It's that black box connected to the motor via that black ridged pipe (3-4 inches in diameter). Just open up the 4 screws on the black box and you will see it.
