Check this out (Ta Da part 2)
 
Got the shroud back today ... just waiting on new shims to install. I am very happy with the way it turned out- hopefully with a bit of Never-Dull every so often I can keep it looking decent. My buddy said it was all ego....(he meant that cleaning the interior bits was nuts- I don't think so. Just maintaining and improving)<p>

WOW! I mean, ah, WOW!

I'm as impressed with the pro-looking background and lighting as I am with the fan. You are clearly an over-acheiver. Very nice.

That looks fantastic! You're obviously fanatical about these tihngs. You should have a fan club going in no time! It's a bit fancy for my taste, but I tend to be on the utilitarian side.

Ok, I'm going to go sip a fanta and relax, rather than sit here and fan the flames...

Very nice dude.. you are the "FAN MAN" ;)

That looks really cool. Its gonna shine in that engine compartment. Pleas keep us updated on how it keeps its cool, and post us a pic when mounted.

CamB 07-17-2002 12:36 AM

Yeah, I'm with Chuck (this is twice in one day - I'm in danger of becoming "Me Too Cam").

I can't decide if I am more impressed with the finish on the fan or the photography :D Send the first one to Wayne for his book...

Sean - jeezus, that thing looks like a work of art and it should be on display in some auto museum.

Nice job!

vesnyder 07-17-2002 03:53 AM

NIce! Mine looked just like that for a couple hundred miles. Now the fan looks dull, but much better than it did before though. Did you do anything to protect the fan - clear paint? I polished the strap and placed a black PORSCHE decal across it. Looking good! I may have one left if interested? If I could just find a way to keep it so shiney?

carnut169 07-18-2002 05:11 AM

Installed the fan last night.... scratched the #@!*#?! fan shroud when putting it in- oh well. I am glad I decided to go black/ polished. To me it looks like a clean almost stock look- <p>

That looks fantastic! Did you powder coat or paint the shroud?

I did the same thing when I removed my fan, black powder coat and a polished fan. I really like the results.

carnut169 07-18-2002 05:22 AM

Thanks, it was Powdercoated.

Wayne 962 07-18-2002 05:30 AM

That is indeed very impressive. Can I use this picture in the new book?

carnut169 07-18-2002 05:33 AM

Can you? Heck yes!!!! If you need a higher res photo I can do that as well!<p>
Hey- your supposed to be on vacation!

Sarah 07-18-2002 08:58 AM

Great job and very shiney!!

Everytime I see pictures of "spotless" engines, I know we have to get our B*tts in gear and clean-up the look of ours.

pbs911 07-18-2002 09:05 AM

That's perrrrty.

ToyCollector 07-24-2002 04:35 PM

VERY VERY nice Sean!! Mt lift may be here late this week or early next. ended up going with Reliable Hydraulics after all. You need to deal with Charles!

Botman 07-24-2002 04:41 PM

How much for this new fan polishing / powdercoating service? Hint: buy an extra one or two prepare them just like this and offer them up with a core.

It looks awesome!
