Default I got my 2 piece chrome plenum cover

I just received my 2 piece chrome plenum cover today. Easy to install, (just 2 sided automotive tape) and I took a picture for everyone. There's only one downfall though! I need more chrome in the engine bay.

This is a single piece cover I just put on my son's Vette. What is the difference with a 2 piece?

You don't have to remove the fuel rails and injectors. Just slides on.

Looks great. I ordered a two piece cover on the 28th from RPI. Hope it comes soon. Sounds like there was a backlog for a while. I have classic style silver painted fuel rail covers so think the chrome plenum cover will look nice with those. Am thinking next of replacing all the caps with chrome or polished caps.
