Default Fuel Rail Covers??

So, personally I love the look of fuel rail covers, but Im a little worried about them. It seems like they would trap a lot of heat onto the engine, and potentially melt due to the heat. Is this a problem or not??
Thanks

I cant see your engine generating enough heat to melt the covers i mean they are on corvettes all day long. And as far as holding in heat no more than the hood its self does so you should be fine.. WHOOT WHOOT 300th post!!! lol

If there was a problem with them melting somebody would have experienced it by now. Afterthoughts auto has ones you can order that they custom paint, sticker etc....

They wont melt. Trust me. Now if they were header covers I would be more worried.
