Default Under the hood dress up items?

Ok, I've been searching and failed ... Where do they sell those covers for the PCM, the area above the headlights, radiator, etc ... To clean up the engine bay? Looking for black plastic ones ... Seen them on here before but can't find them now. Thanks for the help.

Check out a sponsor called Yofab or something of that nature. They used to be called specialized stainless. They have exactly what you are looking for.

I remember seeing some people with some black plastic pieces that went over where headlights are in the engine bay, looked pretty decent. I forgot who had them though, I would start checking sites out. Like afterthoughtsauto.

You just want black textured ABS? I could make a 2D piece that sticks on I guess. Like $30 shipped?

Hey Mark, ideally I'd want something similar to your 3-pieces, but in 1 piece that I can leave mounted in the car - not just for a car show, etc. Not sure if possible because of the shape/angles ...



My buddy has a C5Z and has very nice looking ABS battery cover that made me think again of cleaning up the ugly Fbody under hood, without shiny metal. Thanks for the input.

I gave up trying to make that. Too much crap in the way when the hood tries to close...

Yeah those headlight covers were the ones I was referring to. I'm not sure what else you could have in the engine bay that is black plastic that covers stuff up. Fuel Rail Covers?
