Not that I have a modified one right now, but I'm probably going to have my covers painted. Trying to decide what colors though right now... Painted covered=awesome looking (make sure the correct paint is used however, as long as the correct paint is used, it will be fine w/ the intense engine heat..)

Cool

I modified mine.

Just used the plenum gasket as a pattern when I installed my spacer.

Cut it with a RotoZip.....

Wow, that actually looks really good Brando. Very clean. I might be able to do something like that with my Stillen S/C. Props to your engine bay!

It's not as hard as you think. I wish the thread that we last did this survived the upgrade.
