Looks like Midwest Auto Gear answered the open questions much better than I ever could. Thanks for the assist MAG

I also need to retract my comments about thinking they would only be available in black... there will be colors available

I love options !

How about a one piece unit that has all hood strut holes shaved and has a smooth instead of bumpy surface?

Also, I wonder how it will effect the under hood air flow? Will it help or hurt the hood flutter some of us have?

P.S. The gen 2 strut covers have started to grow on me, so I'll be keeping them.

Look around you. These forums are filled with 75% or more with people who are non-stock.

The radiator extensions are up on our website now, with pricing. There are three options: 1.) as molded which matches the factory radiator cover (black only), 2.) painted with base coat satin clear coat which matches the body color and the texture of the radiator cover, 3.) painted with base coat glossy clear coat which matches the body color and our body color radiator covers. We recommend the satin clear coat with the body color as we think it looks the best (option 2).

We are currently building the tooling for the fuse box cover. We are hoping the tool will be complete in the next month or so. Our tool shop is extremely busy right now so it may take a little longer. The battery box tooling is next in line after the fuse box cover.

I almost forgot, we don't think that after market cold air intakes are going to be a problem with the radiator cover extensions but we have not checked it with one. If someone who lives near us (southeastern Wisconsin) who has a cold air intake would want to stop in so we can check the extensions, we will throw in a FREE set for your trouble. Give us a call if you can do.

I have the Vortech blower & aftercooler, and I'll have to modify the passenger side piece to fit. I don't think this will be a problem; I just wanted to let those of you with blowers know.

I took a look at the website. No option 1 is available that I can see -- only body color matt or glossy. Hmmm. Also no mention of a plug for those of us with hood struts.

As a side note... I get alot of positive comments about the side mirror covers. I think they are the 2nd best exterior mod I have done, just behind the Silverhorse Racing Honeycomb rear panel.

I'm interested in the CAI fitment question (I have an Airaid), but I also have a slightly different one: what of those of us who slap on a front end cover for the occasional long distance roadtrip? I'm assuming that the factory holes could be replicated fairly easily with the right drill bit, but I'm curious if provisions have been made for this possibility.

The website will be changing throughout the day, it is being worked on as I post this. Hopefully we will have all the questions answered by the end of the day. Please be patient with us, our web guy is kind of slow.

MAG, thanks for posting on the site. Any word on the plug to cover up the prop rod area for us who are using struts? I'm ready to order a set, but don't want to order them without the plug.
