Sure,
It's plasitc
It's about the size of the intercooler
Geez, it's not rocket science, pull out the measuring tape, write down some numbers and go to Walmart.

Oh,yes. Some use them in different applications for airboxes too. They "remold" them with heat guns and cut to fit...

Thanks you have been very helpful, FYI-I was at work when I asked the question, so could not really go out and measure anything at that time. Just thought if someone had the specs it would save an extra trip.
Trash can mod athe and ? @ the garbage that flies
i just wanted to know what about any rocks that may be kicked up from someone infront of you or just normal driving. i saw this several months back but haven't done this mod yet. I need to since my shroud is trashed. is there anything to protect the intercooler from being wrecked from rocks or ? or can there be something maybe installed to keep stuff from going into the intercooler with any potential to really jack it up. Not really wanting to have an issue if i go with this mod but i also am not considering putting chicken wire on my car either. not trying to sound crazy but it's still fairly new to me and just wanted opinions and feedback from people who have had this issue or know a way to keep it on the road. thanks in advance.

The factory IC shroud has a plastic debris screen which can still be used when running the trash can. Yours may be still in place or you can get a used one from members here if it's missing. I've been running the can for years and haven't seen any road junk up in the scoop.
