Aftermarket Engine Cover ?

[Spin140]

Has anyone fitted one of these and do you have any pics, I'd like to tidy up the engine bay as I have an Evoms fitted, prices, outlets ?

I've done a few searches but cant find any pics fitted to an S3.

Cheers all

Rabbitt has a Neuspeed carbon one - looks nice.
Evoms one looks good too

Not keen on the Neuspeed. The Evoms looks great:

Still want it but I'm putting all my money in savings right now.

Ignore the insert. You fit the one from your own engine cover.

How much was it?

How much was it?

£50 and was complete with air sensor as well, I priced a new one up to see if it was worth cutting mine up and there about £130 IIRC and not sure if thats all the bits needed if i cut mine up

****** hell - £130 for an engine cover???

The dealer I bought my car from covered mine in a disgusting "oh lets have a shiney engine cover" oil stuff - he must have thought it would make it look more presentable!

In truth, it dissolved the paint off the 2.0TFSI lol so had to rub it off!

The "detailer/valter" in that place is shocking and my car was covered in polish and trim was stained!!

All sorted now though

Ahh the original Auto-Smart universal dress up spray, pure silicone in a can! A 2nd hand car dealers weapon of choice, hope none of it went on the leather? its a nightmare to get back matt again after that crap had been put on it!

TFR'd it and dressed with Black WOW trim detailer and looks spanking new actually looks quite good with the blacked out 2.0TFSI badge!
