Default Exhaust Manifold Cover / Engine Cover

Hi everyone,

I have seen a lot of CF engine covers on sale on ebay and on the internet in general, but I haven't seen any non-CF engine covers on sale at all. On top of that, I haven't seen any exhaust manifold covers either (that large silver finish cover with the "don't touch" hand sign on it right in the middle of the engine bay).

Do you guys know where I can find non CF engine covers or ANY exhaust manifold covers (even the stock ones) for a 2007 tC? I got into an accident about 2 years ago and now the battery acid that got on the covers is starting to corrode and make it look all ugly. And with a black polish Injen intake, everything else in the engine bay just looks super ugly by contrast.

Website and pics are welcome for these engine dress up/cover parts!

Can you show me a link from TRDsparks.com with these parts? I looked, and all I found were CF engine covers - I am looking for NON-Carbon Fiber engine covers AND exhaust manifold covers (aka header heat shield covers).

Thanks!

Sheesh, I know OEM is expensive but for that price I'd rather have the CF covers to show something for my money. You need to hit up a junk yard or something man. Spending $100 on an engine cover that's stock is craziness IMO.

yeah, junk yards ftw

a few used ones pop up on ebay from time to time also.

as far as the heat shield goes, i'd have my stock one powdercoated before paying $120 + shipping just for a stock one. lol

$101.71 shipped seems about right for the heatshield from a dealer. The engine cover I dont know if I would pay 100 for it. I would try the junkyard for the engine cover and maybe the shield, I have seen alot of Tc's on flatbeds recently.
