[QUOTE="puzzle13, post: 9265449, member: 63109"] I am late to this post, but I was the first to install the cover if I am correct. I got it at the original lower price, but it was a large amount of trouble. Yes, it is a beautiful piece with a lot of thought involved, but it is also a nightmare in ways. I bought it for the convenience of putting on a cooler & temp gauge as I track my 03 all the time. First of all the thicker construction increases the heating of the fluid extremely!! They now include the expansion tank which would be fine for the street, but who wants a expansion tank for street driving?! The expansion tank is too small for road racing track use! Mine is larger and is mounted just under the trunk lid and it still spits some! The arrangement of the ports makes filling & checking the fluid levels impossible if you have a cooler on, so I have to fill through the expansion tank ... actually this is very easy, but I cannot check fill levels! I also have developed leaks after 3 weekends at the road racing tracks and still have not figured out the problem. As to those whining about no plugs included ... get a life, you can get brass plugs with pipe thread at most parts stores! And for those of you who think some of this is unjustified, I spent a great deal of time with Justin @ Fore on the phone concerning these problems! In my humble opinion ... this cover has only 2 justified uses ... a car that needs a cooler & temp gauge due to track use, and as a very pretty paper weight. If I had bought this for a street car it would have been sent back or thrown in the trash! [/QUOTE]
