      $29 eBay Carbon Fiber Engine Covers (intake manifold and plug covers)

      Well, I've been driving around w/ the Acura spark plug cover and No Intake Manifold cover (broke during swap) since January. I figured it's time to get something. Didnt feel like spending $100 on the JDM pieces right now so I "splurged" for some carbon fiber pieces from eBay....$29.00 for the pair.

      Quality so far is about a 8.5 out of 10, because there are a couple minor imperfections in the weave around the bolt holes. That score may drop/rise dending on how well they withstand underhood temperatures.

      Fitment is PERFECT, they fit w/o modification and do not rub on anything. Fitment is about the same as stock. Auction stated minor modification may be needed, but none actually is.

      Here's a pic for ya...

      That's a good buy. You can even see your reflection as you take pictures.
