Otherwise absolutely no problems with their product.
Test covers???? I thought these were in production already.

And I thought MAG was going to release a rubber plug that would be available to those (like myself) who are using struts for the hood, and no longer have the prop rod installed? What I really want to know is, are the high gloss extentions smooth, and how do they compare to the painted radiator cover? I'd want them both to match up in texture, instead of the middle being grainy texture and the ends smooth. Can anyone answer this?

I think they are in production. I placed an order for a painted set to match the Windveil Blue radiator cover I got and I emailed them and told them I was going to come there to test them to see how they fit with the CAI since people were asking and I live near them and they had made the offer in this thread. It snowed the day I was gonna go and then last week I had a funeral to attend so I couldn't get up there. They emailed me back and said they would send an unpainted set to me to test fit and then if they were OK they would go ahead and get my painted set to me. I emailed them today and told them they fit fine with the CAI. Waiting to here back.

Talked with them today regarding my order, the extensions orders are running about 2 weeks behind. The plugs, at least per my understanding, are not ready yet and estimated around 6 weeks.

Radiator extension covers

I had the same issue.

The existing bolts will not engage with the extension covers in place.

I only received the plastic plugs with the covers. Appears like they also need to send longer bolts also so we can install thes on our cars.

Sent Midwest an email describing the problem. Still waiting their response.
