Dammit wish I would have know this 6 months ago. Been driving around with no squirters :( Great info man!

I'm trying to decide how that would look. Are there any pictures of it on a car?

I haven't seen any, but I am looking at it for cooling purposes more so that asthetics. I am hoping to get additional airflow through the engine bay by allowing the warm air from the IC/Rad/OC to escape through the center vent................

Either way, I am going to have it painted to match the car. Maybe keep the center section CF, but not sure yet.
