Well, being a 90° V6, it puts the angles at true 45'*, but it'* difficult to chuck this up on a mill due to the size and odd shape. Not only that, but the milling would have to vary depth, too. It'* probably easier to do this with power hand tools, just like the way I did my SC.

I'm probably tackling this over the weekend. I'll take before and after pics.

I went to the dealership to pick up a new one today and theyve done away with the plastic ones. Now they have metal ones but theyre 17 bux.
