radiator cover

I am looking for anyone that has a LMC Part # 38-1895 RADIATOR COVER-STAINLESS on their truck. I will post a few pics later today as to what I am trying to do. I have a set of Derale dual fans on an aluminum 2 core radiator and trying to cover the gap without getting the local metal fab shop involved. the piece that LMC offers looks good but I would like to see some good installed pictures. I called LMC and they gave me these dimensions. 27 3/8' long, 5 3/4' wide, 1 1/8' lip. please help. thanks guys

Re: radiator cover

There was someone on here that was making some pretty slick stainless steel (or aluminum) rad covers. They were bad ass lookin'. Maybe someone else will chime in if they remember.

They look waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy better than those LMC things.
