I have checked the previous forum's for a replacement (metal) grill for the sticker on the rear Aero bumper. I have seen one that was done by John Monk that was featured in the #3 issue of MC2 which looked pretty good but think that it was self made. Is or has a one of our vedors developing/developed one at a reasonable price??

Thanks for the info

 

I called John Monk and he said that it was not costly and can be done at any machine shop. John used the OEM insert as a template.

 

That's what I thought...think that I will try to do them myself then.. Don't have the machines but think that a drill and files will work. It'll just take some time

Thanks for the info

 

seems like many people are just taking off the decal and painting it black, but i like that metal grill John Monk did.

 

If there was enough interest, I can check with the machine shop about a group buy on these.

 

Id be interested i haven't seen yours but my stupid stickers is looking really crappy.

 

John Monk's car is in the last issue of MC2. The rear grills are unique and look awesome.

 

I may be down for this...

How did they attach to your bumper?

 

I used some 3M tape, and two rivets on each one. You could use bolts instead of rivets though. I'm getting more serious about getting some made, a lot of our club members are asking me to.

 

Are there any pics of John Monk's car? I would love to see how these look. I'd be interested in an alternative to the stickers.

 

i'd be interested in a set

 

I am interested for sure...What would be the price???

 

Great pictures in the last MC2 magazine

 

I'd be interested in a set also. For those of us who do not subscribe to MC2 (yet), how can we see the final product?

 

Here is a pic. I am getting some made soon to bring to the Dragon, if anyone wants them sooner I could ship them I suppose. Email me if you are interested, I will find out what the cost will be, probably around a bill.

 

i'm making some inserts in carbon fiber. it will look sweet w/ my royal gray car. it's not very difficult to fabricate. uv protection is the biggest problem that i have, as most resins contain no uv filters. i'm spraying my pieces w/ a clear urethane containing uv filters. greg

 

Has anyone cut out behind these and opened up this as a true diffuser vent? Did it make any noticable difference? I would thing high speed rear downforce could be improved by better evacuation from that area.
