heres a matched plenum, pony emblem, fuse box cover and radiator cover.....satin silver base w/ red candy flames and tangerine, and yellow highlights.....these pics dont do these ANY justice.....the fusebox and radiator cover are slick as glass.

Ok, what are the basic prices on these?!? I need to start collecting some items for my car.

I will want something custom painted on them to go with my theme and I still want to talk with you as we get closer to the summer about painting some ghost stripes on my Shelby.

The only thing that will suck is that I will drive my car from Birmingham and have to drop it off to you for 2-3 weeks probably!

How much would it be for the silver with red flame plenum, fuse box, and radiator cover combo? that is exactly what i was looking for!!

 

I was going to quote just a couple pics and reply with a bazillion [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/drool.gif[/img] smileys... but I don't think it'll let me quote everything. Awesome work!

That 04 engine cover is absolutely gorgeous. Approximately what would it cost to get something like that done on a radiator cover & have a matching fire plenum cover?

Oh and

You da man! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

 

Wow Bill, the more I see, the more I like. You are one talented guy !!!!

 

Bill,

What manufacturer did you use for the radiator cover? Is there a particular finish or way we should order it? I'm thinking too much about this now.

Well, the plenums range from 140.00 to 150.00 from midwest in black or silver. They charge 50.00 for any other factory color , If you want any base color other than black or silver , I order black or silver and repaint it for 35.00..it saves 15.00 but moneys money. Af far as the designs go the basic flames are 175.00 and skulls or this new horse design add cost from the basic flame job.....it depends on what you want. If you have some ideas email me at hireman356@aol.com and I'll work up a quote on it.

thanks,
Bill Coogle

The radiator cover , fuse box in these pics are the factory items. There are several ways to prep these for paint. The guy who ordered this paticular combo wanted them as slick as I could get them. The labor to prep the parts was around 100.00 to make them really smooth. (lots of sanding and grinding required). There was an additional 75.00 to base coat all parts. The radiator cover was 200.00 to airbrush ( LOTS of flames there) , the fusebox cover was 75.00 to flame and the plenum was 175.00. He wanted a showcar finish on them and to paint them and get that it requires a lot of work ( just look at the finish on these parts under your hood)....these now are slick as glass. And by the way, there is NO bondo or filler in any part, they were all worked smooth them prepped for painting.
As you can see, this is not a cheap thing to do but when you take into account the amount of work and flames involved it really is a bargin....just ask anyone whos ever had this type of painting done on a harley for example. I really wish there was a way to truly show what these looked like in a picture but you jsut cant ( or I cant anyway...LOL)

Thanks for the compliments.....I would do this design on a plenum, I would not reccommend it on a radiator cover. Match whatever flames and base on the plenum to the radiator cover....leave the more detailed art for the plenum....its the center-piece. The design on the 04 cover adds about 60.00 to the cost of a flame job no matter what its on.

These were just the factory ford parts he sent me to rework and flame.

 

Thanks for the response Bill! I need to order a couple of items to get to you know....

[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]

I love your work and so does everyone else I have shown just these pictures too. It is even better knowing these items look even more gorgeous in person!

Bill,
You really have to stop this crap! I guess you can look forard to having my Radiator cove being sent to you in a few months.
Do you think that will be a bit much with the plenum and Cam covers?

Here is another one of Bill's rear emblems...

 

Hey Bill, I'm a little upset now because I can't run one of your plenum covers... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif[/img] So when are you coming to Vegas... ?[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img] I want you to paint the top of my Saleen. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img] Consider it a "working vacation" and write it all off on your taxes. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrinjester.gif[/img] Seriously though... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]

 

Hey guys, here's some installed pics of the plenum I just got from Hireman. The Steeda Strut tower Brace BARELY fits over the cover, but I made it work. Had to use a couple washers under the brace to lift it a little higher and it still touchs the cover a little bit but the engine still is able to rock when you rev it.

 

Looks awesome! I want my car even more now!
