Who sells the radiator cooling/ducting panel for the S14 Koukie for a reasonable price. The only one I can find for under 100 bucks is the Silk JDM one. Thanks in advance!

If you want, I'll make you one that's almost as effective for $99. :) I'll even put a company of your choice's sticker on it!

I'm serious, but on another note, I don't think anyone makes something cheaper than that.

On another note, keep in mind that these are VERY easy to make by yourself... I have proof! Dousan made me one with simple hand tools and a sheet of sheet-aluminium in 30 minutes or so. (maybe 45 mins since he kept messing up)
It cost us less than $5 not including tools.

yep came out loooking like crap but it was a rush job, used a dremel and it was a prototype! the graphics we added (itsybitsy, dorfto and driftingpanda and myself) well made up for its lack of quality hahahaha

if i did it it would not have t3h dr3f+4r 1337ness :o

that and it looks all complicated and such ;)

i actually did buy the metal sheets, they just seem so FLIMSY and all the cuts on the sample product pages for the prefabbed ones look intricate and hard to measure.

makes me feel so retarded :wtc:

You can put it btween two pieces of wood and bend it that way. (it may be to strong for this method to work thought I am not sure)

Someone should e-mail SPLparts (pink godzira's *hint* *hint*) to start making them for the 240 crowd. They already make good suspension stuff for cheap, why not a little cover? I'm sure it would be FAR under $100 if they made them.
