★ TW: Custom Air Diversion Plates ★

[Russianred]

Would anyone be interested in this type of product for our 6thgens?

I have not seen anyone manufacture pieces like this before for our cars, and I have an opportunity to get these made, and will request a potential group-buy if there is enough interest. I am discussing the price with the person right now, but it will not be cheap due to the precision of fabrication of these pieces.



Please post thoughts and discussion about it here.

to be honest idk what it is exactly, is it just a cosmetic accessory or is it shielding/protecting something.

It's mostly cosmetic, it blocks off the usually open area where the hood latch, radiator, A/C piping, and cooler core are.

they are actually made to force incoming air into your radiator I cant remember what they are called exactly (maybe cooling plate?). depending on the price I may be interested in one once I get some money and my car at least partially together.

- What's the material? SS or aluminum?
- What's the thickness?
- How's the edge? Sharp? Rounded? angled?
- Fitment guarantee?
- Price?
- Time to produce?

I have seen these on a few other cars before, Evo, I think?

Nikita are you the 'guinea pig' for getting a custom one made for the Front/Rear? If so, is there a V6 one that would be done as well?

air diffuser plates.

Re: ★ TW: Custom Engine Garnish ★

Yes, it does function as a diffuser, which keeps the area closed and the inflowing air concentrated on cooling the radiator. I'll post the answers to inquired details as I get them.
