Default Pattern and Dimensions for Fuel Rail Covers

I am wanting to make some fuel rail covers (I have the stainless steel already and access to a break and the other tools I need to fab these). Anyone make any of these that will accommodate all the stock hoses / acutrements and be willing to share the pattern or give me the dimensions including the bend angles you used when you made / bought yours. Pictures are much welcome especially if can explain the dimensions off of the pictures as well.

Only asking because I won't have the car with me when I am doing the cutting and bending and want to get it as close as possible before I do the final fitting and trimming.

On a side note...what all mounting hardware do I need to attach these and where is a good place to pick it up?

You are a lucky man... I actually bought a set of these made out of polished stainless. Never got around to putting them on, almost forgot about them until I was moving some stuff around last week and came across the box.

If you want pictures and dimensions, you will have to wait until the weekend.

By the way... I plan on selling them soon, along with a bunch of other stuff I dug up, that I forgot I even had.

Some pictures with the the dimensions would be awesome. I will be looking forward to getting the pictures this weekend. Also could you take a picture of the mounting hardware that came with them? I am not entirely sure how to mount them on the fuel rails.

I will definitely post up pictures once I get them done. I am going to be out of town for a few weeks over Christmas but hopefully have them done early in Jan.

I dont really know what dimensions you're looking for, so tell me what you want.

No mounting hardware could be found, it looks to use the factory bolts.

Also, sorry for this being a day late.

Here we go...
