Mivec Covers...

Post by Greggles »

Slighty off-topic - but does anyone know people who can paint these professionally? Like say if I were to want an airbrushing or some kind of artwork like some of the one's I've seen, what do I do!?

I'm far from being artistically talented with a paint brush and/or spray can and eventually I'd like to get a swanky looking engine bay.

Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope!

Hmmm i don't know about anyone else, but i've seen these before, & they are availiable in Japan. Mikey post it up a long time ago, the company who did the carbon cover also have 5 other style from memory.

I emailed this guy as I was really interested in getting it but he said.
hi there ive got some bad news the engine cover isn't for sale now as there is some quality issues it reacts to heat so i have sent it back to the people who made it.
He's going to email me when it gets sorted out. I'll let you guys know.
