LOL - I thought about selling these but this one took a long time to fab up (test-fitting, trial & error, etc.). It's pretty simple, though - a friend of mine calls it "alumigami."

FYI, I spoke with Dave at Linsey and decided to put his new blanket on my Vitesse stg.2 this week. The pic. also shows the new Porsche part for the water tube with the fancy heat wrap. The blanket fits great for the KKK style hotside if that helps anyone. I'm going to use some safety wire to secure it, unless anybody thinks that's a bad idea.
