Just to let everyone know the mishimoto fan shroud will not fit if you have a larger radiator (mishimoto or koyo) and a person or mishimoto CAI. As the intake interferes with the upper crossmember. With that said if someone is still interested in buying one, PM me and I'll send you mine. Still in box test fitted but never installed.

Are you saying that the combination of fan shroud, radiator, and Mishimoto CAI won't fit? Not sure what you meant by "and a person or Mishimoto CAI"... probably just a typo.

I have the Mishimoto performance radiator and aluminum fan shroud installed with no issues.

Hey G-unit!

Sorry to hear that you might be having some fitment issues.

However, I would like to assure you that our fan shroud certainly fits on our radiator, and is compatible with our intake as well. Each of these parts also work well with all stock equipment. We do not typically test our products for fitment with other aftermarket parts, but if the other parts in question are designed with true factory fitment in mind, it is likely that fitment should be fine there too, though I can't make any confirmations on that.

We provide install videos for most of our parts. Check out the video for the fan shroud:

If you are having specific fitment issues due to something that you feel may be attributed to a manufacturing defect or anything along those lines, please reach out to our customer service team. Every one of our parts is shipped with a lifetime warranty, so if there is any issue, our CS reps will take care of you in no time!

Thanks for the feedback,
-Gardiner

Sorry for the Typo I meant Perrin 2.5 CAI, as far as I know the Perrin system was supposed to be a direct placement fit. But for some reason when I add them all together the Upper Radiator support doesn't want to fit.

Not every direct-fit replacement fits the same; there are numerous ways to skin the proverbial cat, so unfortunately, we can only guarantee that our shroud will fit with our intake. We haven't done any test-fitting with a Perrin intake, but maybe someone else with one can chime in? Unfortunately, that's the best I can do for ya in that regard! If you manage to fit it, feel free to post some pics and share for others .

Thanks for reaching out.

Hey Zenex!

We're workin' on em, and as I'm sure you know if you've seen any of our posts, the R&D process is a fluid one and we are still looking into a few things. We'll keep you posted on when orders will ship though; I appreciate your patience and support for the dark side of the shroud.

Hey Trueweltall, we don't have any specific comparison numbers as this is primarily an aesthetic or a functional upgrade.

The benefit in this is not only in the looks department, but also in its size. It frees up quite a bit of space towards the front of the engine bay so you'll have so much room for activities! Of course, activities can range from simply wanting more room for working, a cleaner appearance, or better fitment of forced induction/other accessories.

Let me know if you've got any other questions!

Thanks,
-Gardiner
