to each his own...I personally dont like just the black molded ones as they are a shade different than the stock radiator cover...but thats just me....but I will say $400++ for the radiator covers, extensions and now the strut tower covers....yikes...add in my billet caps for all caps under hood and I am over $625.....dang....oh well....whats $$ if you cant spend it....

allthough...if I get to clean it and repaint (prime then paint) both in black..that would save me some change.....about $200.....hmmm.......maybe I will do that....

by the way you can get them cheaper from americanmuscle.com than midwestautogear themselves...free shipping at americanmuscle....thats where I jsut bought mine from...went with the molded black...if they dont match 100% then I will prime and paint all....

Just a note, when ordering the covers/extensions, if you have hood struts, you can opt for the (prop rod) hook delete on the radiator cover and get a plug (for ~$11 or so) for the extension cover.

I bought the unpainted extensions and painted everything myself.
