DLS Oil Cooler Grills...

Hello everyone,
I am interested in purchasing the DLS Oil Cooler grills, I just don't know how to go about doing it. I really need them ASAP because I am going on a road trip soon. I really do not want to go to Home Depot and make my own. I rather, but them and have them already made to go around the fog lights. Anyway, if anybody has any info, I will greatly appreciate it. Also, if any other companies offer the same kind of grills for the oil cooler that are pre-cut please let me know.

Thanx in advance,

Rich

It will take time to receive them and much more time to install them.

Don't bother installing them unless you get a radiator screen too.

Try Racing Beat products. Also do th air intake install.

You want to do all the mods at the same time. That way you don't have to r=take off the bumper more than once.

If you need the screens quickly, buy the Racing Beat set. DLS Customs will take time.

This is a different design than what Dennis has, but it will serve the purpose just as well.

Thanx Razz

Thanx for the info Razz,
Does Racing Beat have them cut to fit around the fog lights or no? I don't have the money for the Intake yet...I just brought the exhaust, tints, all new bulbs, clear corners, rims and tires, and some new cleaners for the baby. Intake is going to have to wait for a few weeks. LOL

Thanx again Razz

the covers fit right behind the lights. I have the RB screen set it is very nice, they slide right over the oil coolers. If you are getting the oil covers get the ac cover as well. the a/c cover sits 2-3 inches infront of ac condensor, it is vitrually invisible. it is quick and easy to install and the product looks good.

Is there a DIY thread specifically for the RAcing Beat screens. I just ordered them and want to get familar before I rip apart the front of my car.

Thanx in advance,

I was one of the first to get them. In fact I have a prototype version that has held up extremely well. I also have Racing Beat grills behind them. They look great together

no DIY, the only DIY you need is how to remove the bumper. also it comes with directions and the directions have pictures with them it is easy.

Looks good Nemesis. How was the Racing Beat install? I really am a noob when it comes to removing bumpers. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

I've had the bumper on and off now four times. It really is not that bad. It takes some nerve the first time, but after you do it - you will laugh when you see how easy it really is. Just remember to cover your headlights with tape to protect them.
