Man. RHD cover *RANT*

I can't believe the G didn't come with the RHD cover.. wtf?... We pay 30k+ for our cars and they didn't even bother putting the cover on... Come on the engine cover looks good and all, but they cheaped out on that corner!!!!@#!!

I've been holding out on buying the RHD battery cover because it's priced at about 60 bucks everywhere I go. 60 bucks!! lol.

Well today I finally just said screw it and picked it up. Just can't believe I had to do it!!

Dude, I'm with you on that one. I'm going to have to eventually break down and buy the RHD side as well.

It is RETARDED how they left it wide open? Why even bother with the rest of the covers then, you know...

Agree 1,000%

Let us know how it looks once installed though. CONGRATS!

Does this $60 one require drilling or cutting/modifications to be installed properly? I remember seeing the $99 one that came predriled/prepped for install?

Personally, I'd rather not have the cover. I can quickly check the brake fluid level and condition at a glance. Plus to me, it just adds weight.
