Default Nice Aftermarket Valve Covers for LS2? (ditching fuel rail covers)

Hi Yall

Happy Presidents Day


So Im not feeling the Fuel Rail Covers, Im thinking of removing them and exposing the valve covers and coils.

Im thinking about going with the red valve covers below, not sure if they will fit. Please give me your feedback
