Default New PCM Cover

Made a PCM cover this past weekend. Just out of clearcoat so it still needs to be wetsanded and polished. But it matches my intake I posted earlier:

I tell you what, you and Andrea have done some good stuff to that SS. Everytime I see it I think to myself that theres no way it has that much mileage on it You're my inspiration for the next auto fair, I'm going to try and make my engine bay look better.

Looks great! Here is the first one I did, I've done a couple of other ones for other people that came out even nicer.

After:

No cover:

All covered up and blended in: (and smudged from my greasy fingers)
