I want to dress up my fuel rail covers..what's the procedure to remove them. I noticed on one side there is a hose running through one.

Just give 'em a tug straight up, they just snap in place.

On the passenger side you have to remove the oil filler cap.

You will have to maneuver the driver's side around the fuel line. The forward section can be twisted upwards to get around it.

If you go with something like the Autobuff's setup, cover the fuel line with a soft cotton rag or something otherwise you can scratch the paint up. If you are not familiar with Noel's work, check is web site over in the listing on the left side of the page. Absolutely stunning work of the highest quality.
