My Seibon plate was a father's day gift from my son, about $240... Nice weave, perfect clearcoat.
You'd be surprised at how many people have never seen real CF before. Plenty ohs and ahs when I pop hood.
Yeah the engine bay when moving has lots of air circulation to begin with. The stock cooling plate, is to keep the air directed at the radiator. I moved mine and did not ever go above the 3 bars still. There is still a huge amount of air going right to the radiator as the front of the car is wide open for air. I would not worry in the slightest bit about not enough cooling for the radiator or engine by removing the stock cooling plate.
The AUT style cooling plates allows some air to go over the radiator and to the air filter and also to the engine bay giving some air circulation there as well.
Everyone! I wasn't trying to make it a hostile post at all.
I am especially troubled by the fact that Church Automotive, a "reputable" tuner, would not be able to observe that a stock piece on the engine completely blocks airflow over the coil packs.
