Question carbon radiator cover for front mount setups?

I heard someone is offering a carbon fiber radiator cover for those running the GReddy front mount IC. Specifically it's a shroud that fits on top around the hood latch sealing the top of the radiator to the top of the nose. Anyone have a link? TIA.

Now that I look at the dates, it's a pretty old post. the e-mail address no longer works so I PM'd Crashunit directly to find out if they're still avaliable. I'll let you know what I find out.

I'm not sure if crashunit is even on the forum anymore... I thought there was a link in the thread... I'll look again and see if I can find it.

Out of curiosity, what didn't you like about it quality wise? Did it just not fit well? Bad carbon weave? Bad clearcoat? Thanks in advance. Pics would be good too!

Just as a matter of FYI, we never sold or produced any FD CF covers. Those were made by a forum member, and we hosted his pics and a link to purchase. It is no longer there due to the reason stated.

Thanks
