Where can I get vented headlight covers at a reasonable price? I really want to get one. Thanks.

 

I think Mariah can still stamp your stock headlight covers, and they use a fiberglass back to strenghten the stamp.

that heat shield is nice whats it made out of

 

Corksport also sells a fiberglass NACA headlight cover for $89.

that shield looks like fiberglass to me...

 

I need one of those heat shields, very nice.

 

You can make your own for very little money, but it takes time to do all the fiberglassing, bondo and paint, so get a stock headlight cover from the junkyard, build the scoop you want, then cut the hole in the cover, glue it in, fill it, sand it and paint it. Don't forget to check for clearance with the headlights up and down BEFORE you build the scoop. I decided with mine that making a scoop that went into the cover wouldn't allow enough air to get in, so I built a scoop that protrudes out of the cover, kinda like a small TII hood scoop. You'll be able to get a much bigger opening that way.

 

I will be making them from either ABS or High Impact Styrene plastic, Very soon for very cheap too!
well, they sure as hell wont be 89 bucks

 

So what happens when you turn on your headlights and it pops up?

BAH!, lights are over rated, even at night

 

That's why my heat shield isn't fully sealed. As long as there's a constant supply of fresh air to it then there shouldn't be any warm engine heated air getting in, but when the headlights are on, it can still breathe. You could also run some piping from underneath the filter to the brake cooling duct to get fresh air that way.

 

Well obviously the headlight when popped up will create a vaccum that will still make the scoop fuctional. Just kidding Ted. You've got a point.
