Carbign Craft Alternator Cover
 
Anyone seen this? More importantly, has anyone purchased and installed one and willing to provide additional photos to review and drool? :happy0180:

I'm not sure of the fitment limitations, but I am considering purchasing one to pair with my Password:JDM intake manifold cover.

I feel like some of these parts are just hiding the engine components in the same way most new cars just have a totally plastic engine bay top. This just doesn't do it for me.

I'm with you on this one, it maybe a good idea if you have a vented hood on your car to keep water off the Alt and AC apart from that I'll give it a miss.

I think it looks pretty nice as well. Its engine bling no doubt. It really has no improved function...that does constitute a piece like this as being rice in some circles. In my opinion, if you match the show with the go, who cares. :burnrubber:

Gotta learn really quick in this game to not care what people think. Its not ugly. It doesn't need to be "functional", its just for looks.

I want to see someone with the Password JDM CF manifold cover with this...

But what i really want is some nice skeletonized billet pulley guards...someone make them!

Looks like it might just barely be compatible with the PW:JDM cover, where the intake pipe is. Might need to do a little trimming? Normally I don't like engine covers but boxer engines are butt ugly, so cover it up!

Looks wayyyy better than this:
