Is this a diesel, or did you add the diesel vents to the Coupe?

Pretty awesome.

I like the mod. How much did it cost you, if you don't mind?

Also, are you going to have a matching one on the other front quarter panel made?

Really cool man

I saw a black coupe (94/95) that had that on both front fenders... Looked really slick.

No

It was a ebay auction for a Japanese coupe. He had a twin-turbo setup and a ton of other mods. If I recall, he was asking 25k US for it.

Nah, it was a few years back. From what I recall, he had the Mosselman Twin Turbo setup, black coupe, black tinting, AMG Aero II rims (18"?), 300D fenders left/right, Wald V4 kit, Euro lights & clear corners, 94/95 conversion. Exhaust, not sure.

It looked very clean..

they can be challenging to find used. if you can't find a used one local your probably better off getting a new one. Definitely make the car look hardcore Euro!

I haven't tackled that yet. I thought about it but its on the opposite side. I think the plumbing just might be too long. Any ideas?

I think the long plumbing will get heated up, traveling across the engine bay and be less effective than the factory unit.

You can wrap it? What engine do you have?

I'm still having a hard time believing that the fender slats will cool better than the factory position. Isn't the fender slat for ADDITIONAL cooling for the diesel turbo? Kinda pointless for a NA engine. The fender looks good, leave it at that. Doing work to the air intake would most likely be negligible at best.
