Default Whose Motor Plate?

Looking to pick up a motor plate for my car. Whose motor and mid plate combo is everyone running? Will be running the stainless works turbo headers so clearance is an issue.

You will need to trim the front plates with any setup. We make both front and mid plates. Give us a call.

I have a racecraft 1 piece front, and AEI midplate. I think style is the biggest difference between all of them. AEI does a lot of custom work, his midplate fit great on my setup.
