Engine bay bling, who is making alternator covers and caps in colors?

i think its nice to see people pay some attention to the aesthetics of an engine bay.

I thought it was bad enough for the Evo X for engine bay aesthetics, there's nothing out there for the twins.

Wow that's really pretty! I would like to maybe do somewhat of a gold/bronze theme in my engine bay for bling but that's probably the last on my list of mods.

Thanks for responses it got escalated and funny fast?

Anyhow yes I just do not care for much of the yellow, been considering the paint. Now the other covers and aluminum bits do look nice, pricey yes but look nice and of course they don't add HP not everything I will add needs to either. Thx again for input fellas.

The matte finish of this paint actually looks pretty good.

If you go onto ebay and go into the motors section and enter your vehicle then search for items generically rather than by "FRS" or "BRZ" you can sort by "fits" which will give you some of the generic covers that work on radiator caps, oil cap, etc.

I've done that and unfourtenetly all that came up was more banana yellow options lol. I actually also tried to boil and rit dye the parts and that didnt work at all to my suprise. This plastic they used is "different". I may give the VHT with some promoter a shot.

My suggestion if I had it to do it again I would base them all in white first. Make the red pop. After that picture that @WingsofWar posted, I may have to strip them, paint white and find some candy red.

Personal preference for sure I like the flat matte look.
