That looks spanktacular! I love it when people make their own mods in their spare time. Are you going to paint it to match? I think the silver contrast looks great as is.

I was thinking flat black to go along with the plastic look of the scoops and the lower lip. I don't know yet. The silver is a nice offset and kinda gives it that lower front intercooler look.

Man I'm jealous...do you have access to a water jet though work or did u pay to have it done?
I wouldnt mind learning more about that program you mentioned. My son is in a mechanical engineering program and has been doing a lot of technical drawing in solid works...looks pretty complicated.
Btw...how do u like the agent 47 front lower grille...do you have any other pics?

We have a waterjet and a plasma cnc at work.

The program is called eMachineShop and it's a very very basic CAD program but it can export to DXF which can be used by pretty much any other CAD software out there. If it doesn't need to be in 3D and is pretty basic I usually design it in that program since it's so light-weight. They have a bunch of tutorial videos to get you started and you can print to-scale right from the program to your printer.

As for the grill, I am still working on it, if you meant the A47 ducting kit, I like it a lot. It really helps with track days and keeping my front brake temps down, also helps for those occasional top speed runs as well.

Looks agressive! Nice job!

Nice...i need a new job i will check out that program tonight...it sounds like it might be up my alley.
I was reading the thread again and i notices that you mentioned that this was a brake cooling kit from agent 47. Is it the whole lower grille or do the inlet ducta attach to your existing grille.

gmoran1469

The kit doesn't include the silver grille, that's custom.

The one I got is made for the GT/CS or the Shelby. They also make a kit for the GT though I think.

It attaches where the mesh pop-in plates are for the GT/CS or Shelby.



Those two black plates in the front pop out and you install the scoops in their place. Then you duct those to the spindle mounts.

Wow...those are kinda spendy...almost $600 for the grille and duct. Maybe i will just cut out the egg crate portion om my lower gt grille and fab my own system. My next big mod id koni shocks and boss springs

Very interesting.

I have CS bumper with Agent 47 scoops, currently running factory upper and SHR lower honeycomb insert but have Shelby upper & lower grilles in black not installed.

I would have gone with the Shelby but for one, it doesn't stick out far enough for my liking, and two, I already have an upper grille and the bar spacing wouldn't match.
