Nissan V6 Plastic "Engine Cover" Question
Does anyone know where I can pick up one of those Nissan 3.5 V6 plastic engine covers? I'm hoping I can put one in my car cuz I enjoy the clean look, however, I'm wondering if the mods done to my engine by the previous owner would prevent me from doing so. Please look at the pic below - any thoughts? Thanks for reading

IIRC the Kinetix plenum is similar in shape to the Crawford plenum, and the OEM engine cover will not work unless you modify it. Here is a pic of my Crawford with the engine cover that I modified to fit. If I'm not mistaken Kinetix copied the design from Crawford.

Nice work fellas - all of them look nice. CoachK how did you modify your cover to fit? Did you cut it on the top half to make it fit? I'd like to replicate what you have done if possible. Thanks

Yup, I cut/trimmed the top part to contour to the plenum and then had a buddy of mine who does custom paint jobs, paint it for me.
Guess what.... ITS FOR SALE!!!!!!!!!
