I've seen a similar home brewed shroud made from a big cookie sheet, with a couple of rubber ram air flaps to allow air to bypass the fan at highway speed. If there's room for it, a thermostatic fan hub can be adapted to the water pump to minimize noise when the fan isn't required for cooling. That system is totally mechanical, no electrical hookups at all.
