Alder Block Ald53 2.6" x 2.7" x 8" 1.1 lbs. Here's a moderately spalted spindle of Red Alder. The wood is an overall peachy-brown color with warm undertones of red and yellow. There are lines of black spalting that highlight and sometimes cross-cut the grain. This one has very pretty white bits of sapwood swirled into the heartwood. Alder tends to have a lot of color variation throughout, so please browse the photos to get a sense of this particular piece's character. This is moderately spalted piece of Red Alder. To achieve this degree of spalting, the wood does give up a bit of density and strength. Turning this block to achieve a good finish without tearout will require sharp tools and a light touch. This piece also has several cracks. One runs lengthwise along the block, and the others are through the knot. You'll need to fill these with CA glue or epoxy prior to turning. Fully air-dried to 10-12% moisture content. About the Tree This Red Alder tree lived a long and healthy life on San Juan Island, Washington. It died naturally and toppled over, probably during one of the wind storms which frequently sweep across the island. It rested on the ground in the forest for a time, allowing the local mushrooms to colonize and spalt the wood. Spalting is highly variable across the tree. Not all pieces have spalting, but quite a few have black-line and zone spalting that enhance this already-beautiful wood. You'll enjoy the projects you create from this wood! |

Air flow direction
Size: 9.7" x 9.3" x 1.8"
Good product. Fits fine. This is not a Toyota part so Air Flow Arrows on filter should face down in a 2015 Toyota Rav4.

It fits, but just barely, so it's good that it is sturdy

First and foremost, this part is a fairly poor copy of the OEM part. It's close enough to look good from about 20 feet away, but on close inspection, it has gaps all around.
It doesn't follow the curve of the opening properly, and the contours aren't quite right, making it so the outer top corners aren't recessed the way they are supposed to be (see pictures). Some of the tabs don't interface with their mating surfaces because the part is about 5mm too small in the y-axis (see picture).
That said, after ordering another similar knock-off, this one is the better of the two. The matte finish is truly matte. The grill slats are thick and beefy, like OEM. The tabs are stout and flexible, not brittle. After much fussing with installation, you should be able to bend your hood tabs (not that you should have to) so all tabs will lock in place.
The hardest part for me was getting the outboard-most tab to properly snap in, since the outer top corner of each grill doesn't sit flush inside the recessed relief where it's supposed to sit.

Why pay OEM prices? These kidney grills fit excellent!
Style: Matte Black Single Slat, Size: E46（2002-2005）4-Door
Was a bit skeptical but the fit and quality are excellent. The do not wobble around or fit loosely. Highly recommended.
