I came across a company that makes a firewall cover for the Fox body, but I've emailed them and they've said that they'd make a polished firewall/wiper motor cover for our cars(94and+). I think JR and RC have something like it so maybe they'll see this and post some pics. But as it stands now they just want to find out what kind of interest is out there. Price would be $125. Who's interested?

$125 isn't bad at all considering places like Steeda and UPR sell little rad cap covers and fuse box covers for $30.

$125 is a decent price concidering the rad support is $100.

I'm in as long as it covers a lot of the wall and isn't some tiny cover as some of the fox covers are.

Owner said it would be fender to fender and he'd use his buddy's 96 as a template.

If the piece is ANYWHERE close to the one JR has (or some others Ive seen). $125 is a great price. But as mentioned...need to see pics first.

If it's close to JR's...IM IN!!

There won't be any pics available for a while. This is still a "what if" thing and the owner has asked me to do some research to see what the demand is like out there. I figured I'd start a thread here to see the initial response and then move on to other sections and other forums like corral. But the owner said it would be a polished aluminum cover that spans the whole length of the firewall. I know what everyone wants, so I'll make sure we get just that or bag the whole idea.

JR, if you see this can you post some pics?

Who else is interested? Just post a quick reply and then I'll forward this link to the owner when the list gets a little bigger.

Thanks

Mine is just electroplated with a chrome plating and I think they do it by electrolysis method. I had a guy that was going to make me some but he was an old guy (mom/pop op) that took ill and he's not working that much anymore. His price was going to be b/t $225-250. I think $125 is a very reasonable price. PM me his info and I'll take 10 from him if he can give me a better deal.

You need to send this guy the second (brighter) pic to see how that would be.


Keep us posted and count me in.

Anyone else?

This won't be enough for the owner to start developing the cover, so if you're interested just post a quick reply.
