I would like a engine cover to tidy up my bay, the cover would have to be like the one on bandits or ormis car due to being supercharged. Please let me know what you have got and how much.

Ta Pete.

I fitted an induction kit yesterday, so I'll be starting the process of creating a custom engine cover. Probably just out of aluminium sheet, but that can then be painted/polished/covered in carbon to achieve the finish you want.

My plan is to do a proper template, and get an AutoCad drawing done so I can get them laser/waterjet cut out as theres a few people who I think may want one.

That would be pretty useful if you could Smile

I've found this pic of his terminator one...

Not sure if he changed the shape of it or just did the same but with a different pattern for the rising sun version though?

Same shape mate, but you can make them pretty much any shape you want really, i just made a cardboard template first then copied it to the metal and cut it out :thumbup1:

How did you fix yours down? Did you use any of the available mounting holes on top of the rocker cover or just sit it on top of the wiring?

I may be wrong, but I think Bandit may currently be running a polished rocker cover? (If it isn't, then it's the only bit of his car not polished!)
