My buddy just made this rad support cover out of brushed aluminum. He did a really good job and it just slide over the stock plastic one. Now I just gotta decide if I wanna polish it or not. I'll put better pics up on the weekend

I would be interested myself. It would be great for shows. I would really make a normally boring piece really stand out. And I'm not one of those who will want one and then back out. I'm really interested.

For firebirds its possible. For camaros doubtful. This isnt the guys profession or anything, so he doesnt have too much time to play around. He still has the template for the firebird one, so he may be willing to make more. For a camaro he would have to obtain and Camaro cover to make a template and so on. I can inquire about prices if he's willing
