That's the very one I'm using, part number as detailed above.

It has been a very successful mod, reducing engine and wind noise, keeping belts dry in wet weather, and keeping the engine bay clean. Air flow in the engine bay has improved as now controlled; entering through lower bumper and grille, out behind the subframe. I'm using slimline electric fans on the rads, with can be controlled via switch on dash when in traffic or cooling down after a blast; my 250hp engine generates a lot of heat!
