Go back and read the entire thread.
Alright, I did and I'm a meathead, my bad and my apologies. I got kinda sensitive cuz I'm one of those bone heads that pays too much for all the bling $hit. NOW on to more important questions. Are you using CNC, water or plasma? I ask because I have plasma (Thermal Dynamics 51) but I'm pretty green with it. Can I make these cuts? What material would I use, 6061. SLPs stuff seems fairly soft/pliable. Any hints I'd gladly take.

Why not just buy them from R and M Lightning or 2Cool Vents. Although, for a little more money the R and M product is a lot better than that available from 2Cool in my opinion. Check them out at www.randmlightning.com

Well, I did make them in my garage with a jig saw, no fancy plasma, or cnc machine here. I would love to have unlimited funds as some of you on here have, but I am just trying to make my 5 year OLD sled pull some taller gearing without the heat. This is what I can afford, and am not going to try to manufacture them. flame on!
PS. even though it looks like the lights were out when I made them. I can assure you that they were on.

Dude if you take those things off I will send you a free set of Edge side vents. And as far as my sandcars go they are the worst built POS around, take a look in person and you will agree
Thats funny chit there!! By the way do you wana send me some side vents I made a set...LOL
Trav,
Here's my honest opinion.....I think they look great. I'm pretty much a do it yourselfer too. The big thing is (at least for me) is what I (you) think of 'em.
Let us know what you think of the pet screen after some hard research......ok?
Again, looks great. Bagger
i agree with buddy, im the same way, if i dont have to spend the money and figure out how to build all my own chit then do it even if it doesnt work out cheaper at least its your own, but how do they work, do they work for you, other then that i wouldnt care, they work or they dont but still looks good i was thinking of doing something like that but with they nylon stuff that lets in air and keeps out snow. great work
would love to hear how the pet screen works at keeping snow out or any other material people have used to successfuly build thier own. have a jig saw, rivets and aluminum. just need to find a material!
They look kinda gay, you should pull them off and cover the hole with duck tape. Just kidding, look good, hope they work as good as they look.
looks good
hope they keep the snow out
wet clutches are hard on belts

2 things i would suggest.
black rivets- www.performancebodies.com
and a second set of hoods straps to protect that nice hood www.firstplaceparts.com
really good job my brother made his own with pet screen he also is taking prefilter material and putting it between the pet screen and belly pan, if you said you would have bought from a professional i think everyone would have believed you
