Default Stillen intake rattling problem?

I noticed that the intake kind of just floats and isn't tied down. This can't be good for the car. A z shop seems to solved the problem by making their own brackets.

"I need to say that everyone here at Z Car Garage was let down by the fit and finish on these two products. The exhaust rubs and hits in at least two or three places, its painfully annoying. The intake system comes with no brackets of any sort and the front part is left to bounce around to rub on and destroy anything it pleases (see video below.) We have made our own brackets and changes to the intake to prevent any sort of serious damage, we were even forced to wrap the air conditioning lines on the driver’s side to prevent the intake from inevitably rubbing through."
