Hey guys - we would love to make a cooling panel ASAP, I am really sorry that we can't just have them made right away. I know there has been a few months backlog for us looking at these, but we need a more stockish 185 in house to look at for desining these. When John's car was in house, that car had so many modifications and new pieces we wanted to look at fitment on another alltrac first. We have a local friend, with a pretty much stock engine back 185, that we can get in, but we have other products we are making too.
Along with the alltrac market, we have the mr2 market, some new scion parts, and many other general toyota items. On top of all that, we have had a steady flow of customer swap cars in house and interesting projects to deal with, so rest assured that these cooling panels will hopefully be out there for you sooner then later, but protoyping and designing new items is not as easy as "bending a piece of metal"
Especially when you have are a shop that caters to communities like the alltracs and MR2's, who have different modding tastes then a a lot of other crowds. We like to ensure a quality design, a good material, and an item that you guys can be proud to own instead of a thrown together piece of junk. That takes extra time, and needs to get balanced between the loads of parts requests we get on the forums.
Thanks for all the support, when I have pictures of a design, you know they will be up here. You guys have seen what we engineer, and the quality is never an issue once it is out!!!
