Hey guys thats pretty crazy stuff....
Just read all about them then!!!!
now wouldn't it be nice to own one of them...

Finding someone in WA with one of them might be a bit hard

thanks for all the insight for ideas,

I will be attempting to make some this saturday out of sheet metal. will post all pic's of the process and hope they will turn out good as f**k...
I will be going off pic's only as i don't have any measurements so they will not be a perfect replica lol
But should look good....

hey nig they look pretty good you have done a good job champ.
If you can give me measurements and a few pics from different angles.
I just might be able to make a mould at work or even make a press mould so they can be made out of metal.... Tell me you think and maybe we can spend a day working this out. Could end up being a little project to remanufactor aftermarket cowl covers....
