FC N/A owners in San Gabriel, CA

I need to test fit a radiator panel for a FC N/A.

Anyone living near by care to come over so I can do a trial fitting?

I plan on selling maybe 10 of these if I can get people interested, we already know if fits a Turbo II.

Just curious, what are you making it out of? If it fits a TII, it will fit a n/a. They have the same design/dimensions.

If anyone is interested, I am still making the carbon fiber ones. PM me for details.

At least we arent trying to sell the exact same thing. And I know for sure that if it fits a TII, it will fit a n/a. I designed mine from a n/a, and a few TII owners have them, and didnt have any fitment problems.

Ill have some pics of mine up soon.

If you can't find anyone, there are lots of complete FC n/a's at the pick a part in Sun Valley.

Hey TTT, I know how you are with that camera of yours so do you think you could post a pic of your aluminum one on that TII you test fitted it to? I cant seem to find my old pics of my FC fitted on my car, and I dont have one laying around.

Heres a pic of my cf one though.

Come on TTT, just come out and measure it on several of the FC's that will be there this weekend. The cruise is only going to be about an hour or so... then we'll have some lunch. We are meeting at Griffith Park at 9:45am on Saturday.

Check out So-Cal7s ->CALENDAR for full details.

Oh, that's what I thought. I don't see why you need to try it on the n/a's since that area is the same on both cars. There may be a difference between the series 4 and series 5 FC. Either way, I'll be first in line for one when you finalize it.
