Cusco cooling panel

[shaeeb]

Are these rare? Does anyone have any info on them? It looks like anodised aluminium,

wrong colour for a cusco cooling panel, plus i dont think they made one for the starlets and they dont come with a sticker on them as here>>>>http://www.cuscousainc.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/317x/17f82f742ffe127f42dca9de82fb58b1/r/a/radiatorcoolingplate.jpg

I think they did make a cusco panel they did for the ep91's sure I have seen them for the 82's also they are the same blue as the Jam one's, I think with any products the sticker comes in the packet but people just stick them elsewhere if the panels are used they won't look the same colour especially in photo's...a good machine polish would bring it back I believe it's genuine Cusco but unsure how rare.

Can't seem to find any on Google or cusco website, the colour doesn't look right not light enough compared to all the other Cusco panels, problem is you can pick up the stickers on eBay cheap aswell

Don't think Cusco made one. Looks to be just painted & that's the Cusco sticker that comes with the catch tanks.

Edit: with 99% of all Cusco's gear there is a stamp or laser etched Cusco logo.

In the hyper rev magazine I have seen a cusco panel but I think... it was for the ep91 I would think they would make one for the 82 aswell, I have a cusco cage that isn't stamped or etched. On the other hand I don't see why somebody would go through all the hassle of painting it and dolling it all up to be cusco when you can pick polished new one's up for a similar price.

Had my friend check the hyper rev and there is a cusco 82 cooling panel in there apparently

Hi,

Thank you for inquiry our product.

Unfortunately, we don’t have cooling plate available for Starlet.

On the other parts, for example, chassis brace,sway bar, LSDetc... there are some CUSCO items you can install to Starlet.

Please find out our WEB site !

Best regards,

Forgot to come back to this bit late I know I thought I seen a Cusco in the hyper rev txt my penis mate to double check he said yes they do...borrowed the book recently to find it was a Jam one so the chance's are cusco never did a cooling panel!

[Gainzy]

Back to this again even though nobody gives a shit but yes Browner has one on his car lol they do exist ;)

[fremyjay]

But I emailed Cusco and they said no they have never made them haha

[Gainzy]

They all do the same job to be honest he must advertise his carbon parts like 2 years before there made my mate had £500 in his pocket to buy a spoiler that's still not been released that was 6 month ago
