Does anyone have the info available?

well, there's this stainless piece like Pimptout, Bottlfed, and myself have on their cars:



and then there's a FIBERGLASS panel that mimmick the design of how the frame already looks, and ties it all together to create a "finished" overall look. It's really cool, I nearly bought one when they first came out. Unfortunately they never took off and seem to have become extinct real quick. Can't even find pics in searches nowadays!

The cover that you have is what i am looking for, not specifically the radiator but the place where you look down and see the wires going to the back of the headlight.

Where can i buy it?

Cool, glad to help! The other one is nearly impossible to find, so you're in luck. YOu can get it from uprproducts.com, 2koolperformance.ca, and possibly some others. But with those two places, you should be set I think it's $100 for the oen you're talkin about. The radiator one is another piece.

FWIW, I saw someone at a show once who cut out black plastic shapes to screw into the tops of the headlight area. It looked GREAT and very sleek. If I didn't do this, I would've done that. That's the kind of thing that smacks you in the head and makes you wonder why you didn't think of it first.

What will the rest of your engine look like? Or what does it look like now? I think satin will be a great contrast to black, but if nothing else is silver/satin in the engine bay then black may be the ticket.

I know exactly what you are talking about...it's long..it reaches from one fender to the other and covers the entire gap and it's chrome or ss and goes for like $80 and they only sell it at a Mustang website. I cant remember...I think I have the site in my favorites or somthing...give me some time to look it up.

The engine will be a combination of black and Edelbrock silver with very few highlights in red.

There will be only one piece chrome.
