Folks will be asking about that grill; any chance more are available?

I didn't want to flood your thread with how I made this billet so I started a thread here

Gokart that looks awesome!!! I've spoken to Paul about this scoop a few times, I don't have the means to install myself and no shops in my area want any part of it. I would love to have what you've done, if anyone nearby is capable please PM me.

Paul, if you have a sec I had a few questions about the AFV5002. Created a seperate thread so as to not bog down the for sale thread. Cheers.

Some progress pictures of Pauls parts on my car...

Fender vents bonded in from behind





Rear deck



I used three riv-nuts inside, this is part of my grill mounting system from below. I put some reinforced hose over the riv-nuts to act as a cushion to support the middle of the vent. Didn't want any cracking from slamming the trunk closed.



This thin, long slice is for my mesh to slide in place from below. allows for painting w/o making a mess of the mesh



Mesh vent filler, rough-cut. I will powder-coat it black



How it installs. I do not like to keep fitting it in becuase it scratched the primmer. Once it is powder-coated, it will not have any sharp edges



Top edge of the mesh fits into a channel that I glassed-in tot eh under side of the scoop. It make a nice secure, snug fit.



Front hood, I made the opening bigger





mesh parts I fabricated



These I made to kinda snap-in from below. They fit tight and kinda spring-fit into place. I am not sure if I will use fastners to hold them in...

Still making the hood & fender vents? I want the dual hood vents version. Can't zoom on the images on the site, and the descriptions don't make a lot of sense to me. Bond from behind? Help!

Yep still making parts.
Don't know why you can't see the larger images; they work in all the browsers I tested. I prefer Opera - you might want to get it. If you like I could email you some photos...
The fender vents that bond on from behind mean you have to cut the proper hole in the fender, & bond them on the back & finish out the front. Directions are on the site.
Thanks,
Paul

Paul,
Just looked at your webpage and really like the STM Hood Vent, but couldn't find the "size" info for it.
Thanks!

Thanks for reminding me. I'll try to update the webpage when I get a chance. I have a lot more info & photos to add. Since I don't make these for a living, it's not on top of my list of priorities...
But I'll get the measurements soon.
