engine covers

[jacktommo]

Hello people.
Just wondering if anyone out there knows of a good website i could contact for a new engine cover for my mkii megane r26. Just think the standard one is a bit boring and looking for something to liven it up a bit.
cheers

i've been searching for an aftermarket engine cover for my 2000 Toyota Corolla and haven't found anything on the web.

ok mate thanks very much. Will have to try and search elsewhere!

Best off removing it and getting some uprated silicon hoses in a colour to match the car. Looks much better imo.

remove it rough it up a bit and spray it

Or get a custom carbon fibre one made up.

Or repaint it using a wrinkle finish paint:

Get it flocked. :amuse:

Are we talking about the cam cover or the plastic cover that you get on most modern cars?

Metal cam covers can be painted any way you want or you could get it powder coated for not a lot.

Plastic ones will need a thorough degreasing & primered with a dedicated plastic primer, then you can spray it up as you like. PG did a cool water drop effect with his Bora, which you should be able to find with a simple search.
