Default New Style LT5 Billet Plate

I contacted Carter at ctmachining@gmail.com I wanted a LT5 Plate for my Z but I did not want the holes. I asked him if he could make one thinner that I would use double stick tape to hold it in place.

Carter made one for me for $78 see the picture. I also posted a picture of the double stick Scotch tape that I used.

I would have liked it even thinner but welcome your reply's of like or dislike the appearance

I like it, I assume you just stuck it over the factory?

Yes I used the double stick scotch tape pictured. I have not driven since installed but the intake stay cool when running and heats up after stopping I hope this works. I like it with out the holes

I like it, though I might have flipped the logo.

Do you think that tape will hold when it heats up?

You’ll need to check for coolant leaks on startup and when it gets up to temp.
