These look great, I'm interested to see what you can do with the v8's cause you're right....not much room!

I can check shipping to FRA, one problem with international shipping is that the box is 24 x 12x12 and this is oversized. The box is light, but can be pretty steep to ship via USPS.

Actually there are a few differences between mine and the PLP. I also had the PLP on the Gen1 IS.
1. My material is thicker which allows for more thermal mass (holds more heat.) Also no rattles since the assembly is stiffened.
2. The design of my shield allows airflow through it to carry the heat away out and under the car. The PLP design just traps it under the shield and it will eventually only get carried away from the top surface. Mine offers greater efficiency.

Nice. I had the PLP too but sold it when I thought I did not need it anymore. It is good to see products still being developed for the 2GS.

I picked up everything yesterday and am in the process of packing up out standing orders. So please fire away and I will be able to build them up.

Also, here is a picture of the Red on black. The Red came out a little lighter than expected, but it still looks great.

update, all in stock black parts are sold. I can still make a silver base with color part if interested.

International shipping will be $40 vis USPS priority mail.
Thanks, Mike

I'm interested in this mod. Can anyone here speak to the any improvment they noticed in hp/acceleration with this mod when combined with a SRT or similar? THanks.
