That looks neat! My only suggestion would be for you to cut it, where the fuel line crosses the plenum, so we don't have to do it ourselves.

I bought a chome plated plenum cover, very similar to yours above, but it comes in 2 pieces for ease of installation. Just a suggestion!

I'm familiar with the 2 piece intake. This is designed to go under the line without cutting.
Below is a Blue Carbon installed

Looks pretty good!! Another suggestion I'd make would be to make one without the throttle body cover. I'd love to get a cover for my plenum but I hate that bubble thing that covers the Throttle body. I was even thinking of replacing my whole intake for the Weiland polished Aluminum intake until I found out about the heat soak problem. If you came out with one without the throttle body cover, I'd buy one on the spot!! I'm sure others would as well. Just a suggestion.

Now that they have the aluminized look intake cover your supplier, where I got mine from, will have to make all the other parts such as the inner wheel well cover and tank cover in the same colour.

That's my car's engine(so proud).It took a friend 10 minutes to disconnect the injectors,raise the doohickey,slip cover under and connect the injectors.I've seen the 2-piece ones and the separation is noticeable.
TKO's covers are excellent quality.
