Default Carbon Fiber engine cover.

I have to give Pat Scorzetti and American Hydrocarbon a thumbs up for the CF engine cover I purchased from them. A very nice product.Name:  IMG_0340.jpg

Totally agree. I've had mine for almost a year and I get a lot of compliments.

Looks tremendous. 100% agree that Pat is a super vendor with great products and even better customer service. Got mine right before Christmas. Huge improvement over the OEM plastic finish. Nice avatar.

I agree with all you said about Pat. The avatar is a real action shot! I was flying over another company aircraft when the picture was taken and then sent to me...pretty cool pic.

I like the OEM looking carbon fiber instead of the black plastic appearance, but I can't get excited about those metal grill thingys on the sides. Are those optional?

They are optional and back lit with blue LED's. I like the looks of them and I guess that is what makes the world go around! To each his own!

That is a great pic. Coincidentally, I was parked on the ramp at Atlantic FBO at KPIT last night near one of your 76s that was being de-iced. We then followed him out to 28R and departed immediately after him in our Beechjet. Made our little "peashooter" look like a Matchbox toy.

Not to hijack the thread, but, I was chatting with another forum member who has the SC cover. He mentioned that he also has the coolant tank cover on order from Pat. I looked at my engine compartment, this morning, and agree that the coolant tank cover would also be a nice cosmetic improvement. Pat, do you have a pic that you could post of that installed? Could I get that in the exact same pattern to match the SC cover? It's winter in Minnesota and the mind wanders.

Yea, you were talking about one of those little "light twins" that we have! I can say that now that I'm flying the 74-400! Actually I flew the 75 and 76 for a number of years and they both are great jets...people ask me the difference between the 75 and 76 and I say, well the 757 is your wife while you were dating and the 767 is her after 20 years of marriage!!

I agree the tank cover and the fuse box cover would be a great compliment.
