Question FC3S: Carbon Radiator Panel?

So, there may be absolutely no interest in this AT ALL, but then again there's a chance.

I've been shopping around for a radiator panel cover, and i've only found 2. One from Corksport, which a lame looking black FRP that doesn't look like it really fits great, and some aluminum ones from various companies.

I've seen a few pictures of some Carbon and Carbon Kevlar ones, but have no idea for the life of me who makes them. I think dry carbon or carbon kevlar would look killer.

So does anyone agree? I know it's not a significant piece, but it does make your engine bay look nice if it's done right.

Retro spec makes one. There also a vendor on here.

I have on myself. Compliments the engine bay way better then the aluminum ones out there.

Thanks man, i forget about retrospec because they got taken over by C7 or whatever that deal was. Good call, mods can take this down if they see fit...

Those prices are F****** ridiculous! Not to thread jack, but I am having a local aluminum fabrication shop make me a cooling panel for 40.00 (powdercoating available too). If it comes out looking spectacular, I will post on the forum. Hey, a quality cooling panel in the 60.00 range? Sounds good to me!
