I might actually consider making a few of these now. I might make a few total length with the 1/4" offset and few that only covers the area between the lights over the grille.
I'll probably send them out without the finish that mine has, that way if you want to polish it to a mirror or give it a dual-action sanded look to it like I did, then you may at your leisure.
Im surprised that you all just don't make your own, the reason I gave mine a DA finish was to get rid of the marks left behind by the jigsaw. it thing was really easy to make, all you need is a jigsaw, tape measure, small ruler, and something straight and long like a carpenters level. Measure it out, draw it down on paper and make up a cardboard template, then use the template to make fine adjustments to you measurements. When you can install the cardboard template and have the ability to close the hood w/o any issue, then you're ready to use the template to make the cuts in the aluminum plate.

I want to paint mine so you would not have to do anything to the finish.

CF + GVR4 = FAIL. Everyone should know that by now, mods for sure. Ban for the next one who suggests to make something in CF.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

I disagree.
GVR4 + one-off CF bits = /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/applause.gif
Doing one of these in CF would be really easy.

Im not a big fan of CF, I'd rather cut holes in titanium. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

I used a metal-brake here at work. If it's made full length, you have to put the offest in it or the hood wont latch closed
