Default Engine cover / Spark Plug Cover

The engine bay looks naked without an engine cover...to me.

I'm sure that the Toyota Zelas comes with an engine cover. How can I get one from that car?

What are some of my other options? What engine cover (from whitch other car) fits our tC2?

Thanks for all of your inputs...

I know we stuck a Venza 4 cyl engine cover on 1stOne's tC...

I'd guess that any cover that fits the 2AR will fit the tC.

Do you have a photo of one? Is there one that has a TRD logo on it? How about a CF one? That would be cool!

Engine cover for the '11 Camry (with 2.5L engine) fits the tC. I have the picture at home I can post later (if I remember). Engine cover was brought up (by me and off topic) in another thread. I later found out the local dealer puts the cover on the tCs they prepackage with the Toyo Care Plan they have.

You might also ask Descendant Racing about one. Rob mentioned they're developing various CF engine components. They recently released a CF cooling vent plate that's pretty damn sexy.

Descendant Racing website sucks! All they are pushing is their turbo stuff...

Scion Canada...
The 2011 Venza has a 2.7L motor...is that the cover you've used? If not, what year Venza?

I don't understand why you say their website sucks. I'm sitting on a netbook and I can get to where I need to go.

Just because it is not listed on the front page of their website doesn't mean that it's not there. Did you even click on the products link?

Yeah, they're going to push their turbo stuff. That's where they're making money.

You go on a site, what's going to look more impressive on the front page? A full turbo kit or a plastic (or aluminum or carbon fiber) engine cover?

You can also go with a sheet metal and cut out a sheet similar with what people have done on the 1st gen tcs.

The web page navigation sucks...I clicked on products and then clicked on three more...I could not find the engine covers...

I don't expect anything I'm looking for to be on the front page. I usually have such spesific needs / wants that I don't expect this. But I do expect to find it...I could not find it on their website, therefore it sucks - because you're telling me that they are therer.
