Man I m having issues taking out the stock retaining clip!
This might help:

@JimsGarageToys said there's a tricky way of getting the stock one out. I thought he would post a video by now. I get my shrouds Friday. I hope the install goes well...
 
by themselves, these fender shrouds look out of place. But with your red aftermarket cooling plate, they do fit in very nicely even if the color is slightly off.
These shrouds are not for everyone. Yeah I know, I've got like 3 shades of red in my engine bay, but it is diverse from everyone else...🤣
 
That looks fantastic on the Ice Cap! I love how it ties in with the red cooling plate too. How do you like that? Do you think it's worth the money? I looked at it and it was $100 just for the shipping! I do love the idea of the decals on it though!
Thanks. I love the cooling plate, putting it together is a lil tricky. I actually purchased it from a member on here. He tried using it with an eventuri intake, but wouldn't clear. The decal idea I got from my OG 86 I threw a bunch of decals on there back in the day...
 
If you could find a red that perfectly matched the red of the engine cover, you could just paint the shrouds and cooling plate so they all match!
I could wrap it, that means, I gotta wrap the ends of the blitz strut bar, cooling plate and fender shrouds. Another thing I noticed with the stock fender shoulds is that angled access and connection to the windshield cowl. Will the water do down into the fender? I was looking into putting foam padding on the ends of the cowl to keep water from going down into the fender...
