Well done Josh. Chrome plenum cover received, and looks great. Not installed yet, waiting for other work to be completed. I'll get pictures to you when under hood is finished.

Has any one out there ever installed these chrome covers on a LS3 grand sport A6 2010 or later. We can't seem to find a set the actually fits that LS3 manifold properly. Every vendor lists them as being able to fit a LS3 but all show them in phtos on a LS2.
Our manifold is 18 1/4" long front to back and the set we got produced a 1" gap between the 2 sections.
If you do have a set where did you get them. We've run out of ideas.

I wrote a thread on this a while back but in case you missed it here's what I did.
Very simple I purchased an un painted one from West Coast Corvette (don't remember price) then sent it to the plating company that I use (Pauls Chrome Plating) and had them chrome it. It came out second to none and is perfect in every way. The chrome process is light years better than the cheap **** these vendors previously had when they used to sell the chrome one's.
Mine has been on my car for about 3 years now and there is no hint of fading or discoloring at all. Hope this helps.
