What colors were the radiator air guides (called the screens in the parts diagram) avail in over the years... Only white?
Part number # 14037-1099-RZ
I think 91 was green?? was there black?
-
my 95 came stock with green...but I liked the white and got them.
-
Another odd question from me (why are the questions I ask always odd?)
Since I don't have any in my hands.. What kind of plastic do you say it is?
I'm hoping high nylon content :)
Which I'd venture to guess they are..
-
they seem to be the same content as the shrouds...pretty tough stuff.

if they have a decent Nylon content... I can Dye them any color i want...
OOOH... Hot Pink ..... :roll:
Black would look good against the Polished alum rad's....
-
Black screens and polished rads...hmmmmm.....sweet idea!!.If you do it,I wanna see how it looks.
-
okay... having an idiot moment..
as I have devol guards on mine (comming off... thinking its part of my heat issue)
left and right rads are differant size... yet parts diagram shows one shroud size fits both left and right... :?
Too lazy to walk out and look at my 87 (which has differant rads anyways)
-
huh,parts diagram shows the same size for the 87?....definately not right.I know mine are identical(can swap side to side),all the way to 04....and you being one of the K5 wizards on here (seriously),I know you already know that.

88-04 rads are same all the way through..
the colors changed on the shrouds... I know early ones were green and late was white... didnt know if they did black in there reason I asked..
87 is WAY differant.. perhapse the shrouds arnt... Id have to go out in the garage and look...
-
yeah,they never had black on 88-04,I don't even remember seeing any aftermarket black ones either.

Hmm... this does seem like a good idea. Motor is black with polished bolts and so is the frame. Black rad fins with aluim rad .polished would look nice. The rad fins on mine are green right now. New aluim. Rad, on the way.

Being wrong is really easy, I do it all the time.
The real trick is admitting it :lol:
