That panel looks killer. So far as I can tell, it is a stamped piece, not hand fabricated. The tooling on that is super $$$.

they are passing around the template for free. looks just as good as better, and doesn't protrude into the engine compartment like the DSE one. Now maybe start a thread about what color to paint it, oh wait someone already did
but of course if it doesn't say DSE on it, or doesn't cost much $$ some of you won't like it.
but anyway, its just a piece of metal that in reality doesn't really do anything, but I guess if your trying to keep up with the jones.......
Whats up with your web page? What is the point in that?
I guess I missed out on some previous threads.

Edit:
I got it figured now. I didn't realize that was Steve's website.

there is no way they are making each one by hand....I'm sure they made one and are having them stamped. They'll have to sell a few to get there money back on the die...but once it has payed for it's self...they will make some money off of it!

Guys they were passing around the template to make your own like that. I got one and could re-trace it and send to someone if they need it. There is a waiting list for it on camaros.net

Scott

P.S. The template I have IS NOT the DSE version, it is the version that Doinit posted from camaros.net. Just didn't want to confuse anyone.

Oh wait.. this item doesn't say DSE on it anywhere.. hmmm.. Oh wait.. Dodi? is that you?? This is why Yodi was banned. He could have just contributed to the conversation by providing the link to that cool block off plate, but the 11 year old in him can't resist the urge to be an ass.

I love when people are bitter about how others spend their $$.. It's usually by people that create an account just to mouth off under an anonymous name.. or by someone banned?? hmmm

I guess he could make a post asking if his car is too low when just about anyone would know that it is

Thanks for contributing nothing to the thread (Well, I guess the template is a good deal for the do-it-yourselfers and not us posers
