He is showing his car at "Motorama" this weekend.
 
Let me think about it, I wasn't planning on selling them. Kinda pain in the ass to make.
 
Looks amazing. I'd ask for one...but I still use my latch
 
Anyway to extend it out over the headlights (and maybe add some soft insulation) to increase the ductability and reduce intermediate pressure drop between rad and intercooler for better cooling?

Nothing is ever good enough is it? Anyone with a pair of scissors and foam could seal it's sides nicely, not that you would really need to. There shouldn't be any need to extend it over the headlight.
 
Very nice piece! If you decide to make them they I will buy one too-just let us know what you decide.

^This.

That piece would be awesome if combined with 2-3 Dzus fasteners (instead of the bolt holes) to make the top of the bumper quick release :hellyeah: (best to be combined with quick release fasteners near the side markers)
 
I have been looking for one of these. Any reason why you didn't extend it over the top of the radiator support?

Don't know why you would need to go over the top. For this plate, I basically copied the original design and adapted it to work with what I had here. Like I said, I didn't plan on selling these. This will work great for this application.
 
This is the bumper support that goes with it.

I do the aluminum welding on the car. My buddy usually takes care of the steel. We both built the 10 point cage.The 42r has been on there for 6 years. We just changed the exhaust manifold, intercooler, and radiator this round.
