Default Anyone know where to buy Camaro engine covers

Is there anywhere I can buy Camaro emblazened engine covers like the Vette's OEM or some Firebirds Ive seen aftermarket?
For example

Best way to do it, buy some factory Vette ones. They need to be trimmed some to fit but its doable, then we can custom paint them with whatever color/wording you want on them

im not a fan of the covers on the fbodies. it looks cheezy, if you spend alittle time you can make then engine look pretty damn good.

I like some. Depends on the look of the car and how clean the engine bay is.
I personally like the ones from JEGS that have no logo on them.http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS/758619/10002/-1/11191

I'm just finishing up making a set of coil covers :



With that I have a set of covers from a 99 Vette, they have been filled with flexable bumper bondo, painted a wrinkle finish with new vinal stripes. How about $55 shipped? - Sold.....





Thanks!

Haven't as of yet but the plan is to attach to the coil mounts. Weld a small bracket on, put in a couple of riv-nuts in then screw through the top of the cover.

Thanks
