Re: Re-doing "La Blue" once again

It's a one of a kind custom fabricated piece.....I'm doing something similar on mine after seeing it. Will be incorporating the back of the rad support more on mine though.....front will be almost identical...

Re: Re-doing "La Blue" once again

Or is it a custom fabbed fiberglass piece?
