I used this one from FatCat as a basic template. I used some ABS sheet I have left over from the Splitter/Undertray project I'm working on. Basically measured the height and width of the rad. Cut the ABS same size. Layed the fans on it and traced around. Cut about 1/4 inch inside the tracing. Bolted the fans to the shroud. Missed with my hole measurements to bolt it to the radiato so I used a dremel grind holes in while it was in the car. Used some 1/2 foam insulation tape to help seal it to the radiator.
Here's a pic of what it looks like in my car. Didn't take any while it was out. Total time was maybe 2 to 3 hours. I'm a measure once, cut three or 4 times kind of guy. I like making extra work for myself. Biggest headache wasn't missing the bolt holes but not making the cutouts for the radiator pipes big enough. Kept putting it in to test fit and pulling it out to whittle away material. My advise is just go big and call it good.
