all you gotta do is crimp the "L" support to an "I" support. theres a piece that runs from one long side to the other, where the centerbolt goes thru(to give it integrity), it rubs on the intake side of the bolts. takes no time to do. Chromed stockers would work fine.

Running the composite corrvette covers with the promags here. They fit like a glove with no modificaiton needed. They're not flashy though.

I have the Cantons. Nice choice but expensive.

i took my composit vette ones and taped them off and bought the chrome paint and painted the middle for alittle flash... looks good, but i still need to clean up the rough edges on it... work like a charm with my Cranes....
