Blockoff Plate Interest?

[Bishop92t]

Your history sucks...

Indeed. Japan has had these plates out for years. http://www.ma70.com/bishop92t/pics/enginebay011204.jpg Saw this product many many years ago (talking 1997ish here).

A direct copy would be the same thing in carbon fiber. Some people like CF, some people like aluminum. I say more power to the guy making something different.

hey jawsgear, i have to hand it to you that subframe does look very nice. i still feel mixed about getting your block off plate ...but something else you may consider that I was thinking about from another thread.... a "bottom off plate" ? something to replace the undercover for the front section only, not the whole thing covering the bottom of the motor, etc. just a block off plate for the underside covering the intercooler, radiator, a/c condensor, etc. maybe made of AL or something, since 95% of all mk3's seems to be missing the undercover or they ripped it off.... and it accomplishes the same thing as the block off cover does (and probably is more imporantant since there is nothing down there blocking flow unlike the hood up top) i think a lot of people would be interested in such a product, myself included.

I'm down for a blockoff plate. Or a 'closing panel'

 

[jawsgear]

any new word on the plate?

Waiting for the revised sample still. I will check on it today and see what is taking so long.

We can look into it, I will keep it on a list we have started. I want to get these other projects out of the way first though. Thanks.

Okay, here is a quick photo of the Aluminum Blockoff Plate with my cheap camera I had. It is not fully poished yet but I think you will get the idea. Made from 1/8" 6061 aluminum, you can polish, or anodize.

Prices are as follows:

1. Standard without polishing $75.00
2. Top side fully polished $95.00

*Available with or without hood latch cut out.
*All Blockoff Plates will come with moulding for the backside.

Paypal will be accepted. You can also email your info to mk3supra@jawsgear.com for other payment arrangements. We will hold and list people that order until we have a run of at least 5 people. any questions let me know.

Thanks,

Jeff

You have pm Jeff! I just can't decide whether polish or non-polish...I might want to customize the color of the plate later-on.

Non polished would be for anodizing. If you are not anodizing then you would want the polsihed one. Let me know.
