This is the reason I find you hilarious, but kind of annoying at the same tiime. You don't have S&S headers, quit thread hogging

FIGS: Do you know if they bolt up to pre-vvt 2J heads?

how else would you get over 5k posts in 1.5 years?

These look great, I'm interested to see what you can do with the v8's cause you're right....not much room!

and this is the reason i find you to be a egotistical tool bag. i DO have S&S headers they are on their way to me actually, found some used G2 and picked them up but thanks for knowing what i DO and DONT have. will go into my pile of stuff to be installed in the bext year or so (along with my TTE lip, and my ton of audio stuff and my g35 rims, when i go to my buddies house and pick them up)

So far I have only done black and blue and all black. I will shoot for a Red black combo, but with SEMA coming next week, tons of snow here I am tight on time. So probably in a few weeks for color combos. I only have black in stock and only about 2 at that.

the anodized versions are not welded, they use high temp silicone on the bottom and a single rivet on tip combined with the tab in slot features already there.

Nothing on the v8 yet..I am just barely getting these done, so a little more time and a test subject meeting are needed.

I am not sure, I would have to see if the stud location on the front is the same, I am thinking it should. Do you have pics?

Also here is a pic from a black installation with other powdercoated parts installed.

I will have 4 black parts in stock next week, and they will go fast. Ordering is open opn my products page www.figsengineering.com

Actually there are a few differences between mine and the PLP. I also had the PLP on the Gen1 IS.
1. My material is thicker which allows for more thermal mass (holds more heat.) Also no rattles since the assembly is stiffened.
2. The design of my shield allows airflow through it to carry the heat away out and under the car. The PLP design just traps it under the shield and it will eventually only get carried away from the top surface. Mine offers greater efficiency.

Nice. I had the PLP too but sold it when I thought I did not need it anymore. It is good to see products still being developed for the 2GS.

I picked up everything yesterday and am in the process of packing up out standing orders. So please fire away and I will be able to build them up.

Also, here is a picture of the Red on black. The Red came out a little lighter than expected, but it still looks great.
