Use that "Search" function, you'll find lots of info on the "Fuel Rail Covers", or "FRCs", maybe even "FRC's", ...
Yes, the 97-98 FRC's are the best ones to start with because of the 2 fuel lines.
But you'll hafta do some cutting to make them fit.
Or you can simply buy a set of them already modified for $150-200+ range, ready to snap into place.
A couple good sellers here that will help you out.
Good luck, It's really an easy mod that cleans up the engine compartment.
Later, ...

I purchased a set of custom made FRCs by parbreak.Even though they had been modified to fit my T/A,they were still a PITA to install.I have a bad back,so it doesn't take much to get it fired up.

It was worth it though.

I did it and it looks awesome. Cutting them is very easy. I bought a pair for $50 of a board member. Did the whole job for about $70 including paint. No pics yet though.

www.thecheckeredflagstore.com I have seen his work and they look good. Mine are on order. Very good to deal with so far, responds to email and phone calls. The only bad thing is the wait!! I ordered mine like 6 too 7 weeks ago, and it will be like another 2 weeks!!

And they are good to do business with

FRC's really clean up the clutter of our fuel and coil system.. and its a great place to express your individuality and be creative..
