Would love to do this, but it looks like it would interfere with my front chassis braces. Also, my oil fillter is now on my driver's side since GTM had to relocate it with my SC install. Can these by customized at all?

To me, from the pictures it appears to be two sepparate pieces of metal that interlock, so there wouldn't be any concern of breaking (even with a hinge it could break). It looks like the cover has two tabs of metal that fit into two slots in the shroud itself and then the cover is secured with two bolts towards the back.

It is 3 pieces - front, rear, and oil door. Simply remove the necessary bolts for the door and the door will come out.

What kind of brace do you have? Could be customized to some degree - depending on what is necessary. Customization could change cost some as well.

Generally I keep a small stock of the shrouds but for the HR motor it has not been as common so sometimes I have some and sometimes I don't. I really want to see interest and will be making some very soon. If we have a large enough group though, there would be discounted pricing.

Make life exciting! It actually has better clearance therefore less scraping. Sorry to disappoint!
