    Prop Rod Cover for Radiator Extensions

    I recently added hood struts to the Roush, eliminating the prop rod. I have the radiator extensions and I've seen some cars with the plug/cover to cover up the hole left by the prop rod. Does anyone have this and where did you get it?

    Got mine from them too. They are not listed on the site so you have to call.

    Here is how I fiberglassed mine in before priming and painting on the other side. To fill the gap on the painted side go to Lowe's and get some of the black CPVC glue for drain pipe and fill and sand the gap from the plug, then prime and paint as usually if you will be painting.

    Photos of my radiator covers with fiberglassed plug. Check post #7 here.

    Thanks Lee. I have heard MAG sells (or their distributors now) the extensions for those without the prop rod, but didn't feel like dishing out $$ to replace the one side. Your option is do-able.
