I just had to trim about a 1/4 of a inch from the left side of the cover and it sits almost perfect for it being something you have to shave and or modify.

Is this an aftermarket part? My car came with it and I always thought it was original. If so, how does the original cover look?

There is no original cover there, it's just a big, ugly hole. It's a factory piece for the Skyline overseas. The engine bay is reversed due to the RHD set-up.

The issue I see is people might be more inclined to just ignore brake and clutch fluid levels. I'm not aware of ANY vehicles with covered brake reservoirs from the factory?

I've no idea what year/model the OP's car is but my '08 G35X has a cover over the brake master cylinder (just like the battery).
