Garage Defend CF cooling panel

[craig8585]

Could somebody please post up a pic of one fitted with a stock front bumper?!


Also, where can I get hold of one from? I've looked on all the ususal places and had a few searches to no avail.



Thanks in advance :nod:

have a look at Nicelys old project thread. There should be pics in there somewhere with a garage defend fitted.

Old photo, but the best I could find showing more of the panel

You aren't looking very hard. Both Perfectrun and Greenline sell them.

 

[craig8585]

Cool, cheers guys ^^

I was looking on Nengun, and a few Amreican sites. I've always associated Perfectrun with OEM parts, not realising they sell parts like this

What about this one:

?

Craig8585 > Looking at getting one of these too. Worth a mini group buy or just shipping one or two to one address to save costs?

 

[craig8585]

I've put this idea on hold for now because their mega expensive with todays exchange rate.

I'll give you a shout if I decide to go ahead with it though..





EDIT: Would anyone who already has one of these consider lending it to me to make a mould from..?

 

[mook]

No worries mate, they are pretty dear so I'm happy to wait a while, still mustering the cash to pay off the car!

A 'donor' could be a good idea - I have a carbon fibre place near me that did me a load of stuff for my GT-Four. They also make the stuff for the Renault F1 team and the Ascari 24 hour le Mans team, so it's excellent spec.

They did me some cooling panels for the Celica at roughly £150 each when doing a set of 10, The S15 panel will be a bit more complicated but I'd imagine £200 each for a set of 10 would be doable - anyone up for a group buy?

I saw that the other day. Its a good price if it fits perfectly like the Garage Defend one.

 

[craig8585]

Yeah, the Garage Defend one works out at £300 + shipping from perfectrun, and this ebay one is just over £100 delivered..

I doubt it will be quite as good as the garage defend fitment wise, but is it worth a gamble at 1/3 the price!?




Think I'm going to go for it, so if anyone else wants in to save on the postage speak now!

 

[Benne]

but is it worth a gamble at 1/3 the price!?

Thats the question!!

 

[JEZ 8553]

Have you asked that it definitely fits an S15 ? the seller may have just spouted S15 to make his item sound cool.

If it does fit id deffo be up for getting one of these in the new year.

 

[craig8585]

Yeah, he says it is S15 specific. I've posted a group buy in the 'For Sale' section as I'm deffo going to get one of these very soon
