Default Engine Bay "filler" Panel

I remember somewhere in a long lost thread somewhere, a post about someone was making them out of aluminum.

I'd be interested in a Carbon Fiber one or maybe a black anodized aluminum one.

Anyone know of a company making one or have any info otherwise?

Thanks!

Wow that's nice. I really like the way the lip is curled up in the back.

Is that stainless?

!

Titanium. Yum.

I guess being a cyclist and obsessing over rare-earth metals for so long, you just never get passed the whole Ti thing.

$159.00 for that is very reasonable imo.

Default Hmm

Wholy BEJESUS those are expensive and sorta silly looking haha. Looks like the first one is missing a couple holes too.

I made one for Avalon racing just the other day. They will have thier part in 2-3 days I am guessing. For the first few orders I am selling them for -----

$60.00 + shipping. WAY under what you find elsewhere.



Click my link, and check out my site. The two pics on the site are from another persons car. He made a proto of it by hand. Also, Dont make fun of the tred material . Its all a persons preference, YOU dont have to use it!

Here is 1 pic, its a picture reflected off my bathroom mirror in the dark. Its sorta hard to photograph these!

5 bux priority!

Like I said, this is a temporary thing. I want to see if there are any bugs and what not. There SHOULDNT be but it cant hurt to wait and see. So the 60.00 stands for the first couple folks. After that, I will be charging 70.00+shipping.

Its brushed stainless. I told folks brushed aluminum but it is STAINLESS. Sorry for the confusion.

Titanium will NOT be 60bux. I would loose a good amount of money with each order. I can price titanium if someone is interested though
