Default Aftermarket engine covers
I'm hoping for a set of after market engine covers so I can get one to match the tension blue. Anyone else hoping for a different color?

Yep, but my issue in the Red Valve Covers that clash with my LBR exterior! Hopefully like many other cars someone will make a wide one that cover both!

I'd like to see another cover and I think there's printers that can make this happen very soon. Probably we'll see something like that by summer since 'real' engine mods will be out until the computer is tunable if it ever is.

I'm sure there will be no shortage of vendors willing to gouge you for something you could easily rattle-can yourself in a weekend. Be patient.

Includes a new cover, covers are $495 from GM so the painting service is actually only $300 for washable, waxable, actual paint, made from any factory colors or any color that you want.

Exactly what I was thinking since I'm getting tension blue interior as well. Aftermarket should come out with some soon.
