Ooohh, yeah. Would go great with the carbon fiber tube. Doesn't Cruztaker have one?

You mean the top filler cover that fits over top the rad, condenser and rad support, the thing the belt sticker is on?

This thread explains it all from the start:

I have one of the late run, 'fair' condition variety.:P
I like it. My price was right for what I recieved.

I don't believe they are being made any longer.
However good looking they were. There were quality issues, and even more 'delivery in good shape' issues.

I always got the feeling that this whole project started out really strong, with a large following, and then became something some wished better swept under the carpet.

I really like the looks, they make carbon fiber tape, I wonder if I was to get my hands on a old shroud if I could make the same look.

Here is a picture of mine. It is the second that was sent to me. The first was cracked. I would rate the quality at about 75 percent.

klmore also crafted the painted fiberglass replacements. I have his last gloss black one.

Nope, mine is perfect, too. DG Motorsports made it. Maybe it's getting to be the slow season again and they'll do it again. But I'm not getting in the middle of it again.

The one in the picture was off my car. I kept it just for an office decoration, my fish seem to enjoy it. I had three made out of fiberglass just to be air brushed. I think I have over $500 in this one.

They are not cost effective and toward the end DG did not do a very good job.
