Default Fuel Rail Covers

Well as I finished my list of things I wanted to do, I could not help but start another one, I found a really good deal on a set of carbon fuel rail covers online and could not help myself, Even though they were not on my new list, So after they arrived I thought they were definitly too plain. So I added pewter letters and such to kind of bring em around and match the exterior, anyway I thought I would share.

Outstanding! The pewter looks great against the carbon fiber!

Looks Good! Are the letters painted on or did you buy them from a vendor?

Thank everyone, they are vinyl decals that I got from a guy out of Arkansas, it took a little time to get them just right but not to bad of a task. I thought about painting them but figured I would try this first and see how it looked, then maybe paint them down the road.

Nice. I might be stealing this idea down the road.. Where did you get the carbon fuel rail covers? Cost?

Looks real good!

They were on EBay, private owned, never used, and no one was bidding on them I ended up getting them for a bill, with letters and all total was $135.00 it was hard to pass up, and everyone needs a little engine bling.
