Curious as to fan housing options 1989

My girl is slated to go in to John Holt''s shop (Marrieta, GA) this Saturday. She's getting a repaint and interior restoration (complete).

I had my girl pass through my P-Wrench's shop today to give her a go ahead for the paint shop visit,...He noted that the fan housing has spider-like cracks (unfortunately, many). Looks like she's up for a replacement. Since these are NLA from Porsche (I'm told), looks like Vertex has been used frequently,..sometimes with perfect fit,..others with modification of surfaces...in the end, I've heard of NO "no-goes" with this product,..(fan included). that is, any challenges were resolved..

Anybody tasted this particular fan housing from VERTEX?

Clearly, I'm looking for my best option.

Thanks.

Doyle

I replaced mine and I did had to do a bit of work but after I installed it, I have not had any issues. Here is the link to my little project: V****x housing adventure!
