Air Intake Tube Conversion

Anyone here ever convert the air intake tubes using a material that doesn't fall apart? See in the red squares left and right.

I found the left side broke today from the dealers taking in and out so much and was wondering if theres anything out there thats made of a better material.

I found this which is helpful of whether or not you should replace a ripped intake tube as soon as you discover it so thought I'd add it to this post. I ordered two OEM replacements for my 2013 M278 for $60 each but I'd like to know if anyone knows whether Mercedes made them out of cloth like material for a reason.
