Pics of PCM cover installed

I received my colormatched PCM cover from LS1speed yesterday and got it put on today. Its not bad, but probably overpriced for what it is IMO. Anyways, it does do its job of hiding wires and matches the paint well. Enjoy the pics

$73 with shipping and colormatching.

No and no thank you on your 2 suggestions

, I got $300 in the FRCs and about $100 in the valve covers and I love them just the way they are. I get tons of compliments on them

Your motor looks awesome man. Keep the FRC's. It hides all of those wires and gives the engine bay a much cleaner look. Where did you get your chrome bolts, or are those bolt head covers?

Its a combonation of both. I got the chrome bolts at my local Ace hardwares. They have a nice selection of bolts, nuts, washers in chrome. The billet bolt head covers came from(go ahead and let the flaming begin) Pep Boys. Its true billet and not some cheap crap though, been very pleased with it honestly.

Thank you for the compliments as well

Honestly, if I had seen one in person before purchasing, I probably wouldn't have purchased it for $73. I am not going to sit here and recommend to anyone to pay $70+ for one either. Its more like a $30-$40 item if that. It does look good though and no since in second guessing myself or being regretful of purchasing it. I am not unhappy with how it looks by any means.

I have been wondering who the first person was going to be to catch that

Thats the head plate from my 2000 Pewter SS vert that I totaled over a year ago, it was car #4861. I put it on this one as a reminder to myself and also just because you can't get the plates anymore either.
