S2CarbonWorks Acura NSX GT Aluminum Radiator Cooling Panel

We have officially released this new product for production! I will start taking pre-orders for these now, and they will be shipping soon! (due to holiday delay, they will begin shipping the first week of January)

The S2CarbonWorks 1991-2005 NSX GT Radiator Cooling Panel is made from a high grade, light-weight aluminum sheet that has been laser cut & formed to fit the NSX perfectly. Each panel is then Hard Anodized or Powdercoated in the color of your choice, and finished off with one of our laser-etched aluminum emblems. These cooling panels not only dress up the under hood area, but help keep the engine temperature cool during hard use by forcing more air through the radiator (thus reducing the coolant temp). Each panel can be installed with basic hand tools, and requires NO modification to your NSX in the event you want to revert the car back to factory equipment for resale. (on the production cooling panels, I made some adjustments to the final production drawing to give an even better fitment which is not pictured).

1991-2001 NA1 GT Panels Options: $129.99 /ea.
- Anodized Silver Finish
- Anodized Black Finish
- Anodized Red Finish
- Black Wrinkle Powdercoat Finish
- Red Wrinkle Powdercoat Finish

2002-2005 NA2 GT Panels Options: $129.99 /ea. (This panel also fits 02+ conversions on NA1!)
- Anodized Silver Finish
- Anodized Black Finish
- Anodized Red Finish
- Black Wrinkle Powdercoat Finish
- Red Wrinkle Powdercoat Finish

** FULL TITANIUM COOLING PANEL DETAILS: Yes, we can also make a limited edition run of these as well, please PM me for details; we will need a minimum of 10 persons to offer this panel at a substantial cost compared to this aluminum version...

** How To Order: Either PM me, or Call US / Email US! SCW Performance - 405-201-7999 M-F 10a-7p CST

Note: This sample piece pictured was just some scrap material we had for testing purposes (brushed finish), so the final finish will be smooth anodized on the production models unless you opt to add the brush finish to your cooling panel.

PM'd you. Put me down for a silver annodized. Thanks
 
Since the cooling panel does not extend to the end of the fan shroud (its actually about 1.5" to the end of the radiator shroud from the panel's end) I'd say yes it should fit.
I don't have a type r hood here to test, but if it does not fit, I'd be happy to refund your purchase including shipping charges.
 
the panel is exactly 1.3" from the end of the panel to the end of the fan shroud hood. If your Type R hood has at least this much clearance, it will fit fine.

Hi,

only saw this now, so i missed the top 10 :tongue:

In for a Black Anodized with a set of Black bolts/washers

Thanks,
Nuno
 
Bah...I thought the other thread was the pre-order list. Put me down for a black anodized with black dress-up washers.
 
List Updated!

The Red we use for the Anodize is a deep red (not burgundy or maroon either) - Something like this tow hook or these fender washers:

how soon can you post a pic of a installed black anodized piece?

I won't have any finished black anodize panels until we actually produce them, which will be with the first batch on the list. (maybe 1-2 weeks)
I will say that the black anodized finish is my favorite, but I posted a picture of a civic panel in the first post that has the black finish on it, will be identical to the NSX GT cooling panels when they are finished. It's not flat black, or gloss black - It has just a slight sheen

Interesting. Any issues with vibration or harmonic noise at speed? (sense it has no fastening points on the sides)
Do you have a version for 02+ headlights?

btw... great idea!

None yet, as the panel is securely fastened in the center and is rested upon the core support as a "backer". The material we used for the panels is pretty thick for aluminum, actually thicker than any other cooling panel I have seen (mishimito, carbing, cusco, nrg, etc) most of the other brands are very thin metal. We chose the thick material to add strength to prevent any flexing so it works with our design well. Our GT Cooling Panel is not as thin as you might think, it will surprise you.

I will be testing an 02+ tomorrow to see what difference I need to make on the panel to be compatible.

This is a good question, I was wondering the same thing.
 
I've spent far too much lately :O

What the hell, add me to the list ;)

Anodized black with red Screw thingys.

Thanks.
