Driver Side Cover under the Hood

Take a look at this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...em=2449757209. Looks really cool, but over a $100 for a plastic cover is tooooo... much.

Anyone knows a place that sells JDM parts and can order this cover? Or may be a group buy from the forum members?

Thanks.

Re: Driver Side Cover under the Hood

The holes do not line up...you will need to some modifications, as well as drilling a hole or two.

Gurgen has this, and only one of the locking pins lines up with our holes. Also, the metal ridge that separates the compartment from the rest of the engine rides higher than the cover will allow. You will have to grind it down in order for the cover not to knock against your hood.

StrictlyZ has a couple testers of this cover and is considering making a bracket or something so you do not have to drill.

If you get this piece, you will have to cut and drill your car.

Doesn't make sense, does it?....since it's supposed to be the exact fit on the V35 ....oh well.
