Hi Rick. Have you noticed any increase in running temperature since you put the mirror’s on? Just wondered if it might affect that?

no haven't noticed any difference in heat or sound. In regards to the cover being there to prevent paint damaged, well there's many cars that didn't come with it from the factory and they're fine. I've been running my diesel ZT for a couple years with it removed and not had paint issues. I've also had v8's here on many occasions that don't have the bonnet cover and they're fine too, and if the heat from their engines don't affect the paint then we've got nothing to worry about

Gosh Cliff, if you put those on the Lagoon it will really set your engine off beautifully, I wouldn't dare put them on the Raven - only show the glaring deficiencies!
However I did put the stainless steel fuse box cover on and that looks really good, thanks to you and Rick.
