  • upper radiator support

    will this fit the 3.8 v6 with some slight modification or will it not work at all?

    Re: upper radiator support

    I picked up a polished one on ebay for like $40 for my 96', just recieved it and looks great. Also the V8's and V6's are the same.

      Re: upper radiator support

      i assume it wouldn't work with a 98+ bc of the air lid? should fit the 93-97 with no problem from my understanding, and i'm guessing it would work with turbo applications due to not needing a lid?

                  I gotta get one. The empty rad cover without a lid looks nasty. I'm putting this on my 98 obviously but, do all the years have the same fit?

                    That's what I was wondering that and if the v8 is the same

                        v6 and v8 will both be the same. 98s can go with a polished metal one and run a CAI to the fender if they like. Or stick with the lid and not get one of these covers. 99-02 would have to ditch the lid and run a CAI as well. Not worth it for the 99-02 crowd as the lid is a better setup with the straight shot it has going into the engine

                          lmao, i'm not trying to break any records. If I was, I'd have 2 turbos instead of one.. Hm.. I should do that.

                              what about if they bought that, but just cut out a whole where the lid would sit?...cut it just slightly smaller then the edge of the lid, so that you can't see that it is cut?
