Default Engine Cover

My center engine cover has cracked in half and a big chunk of it is missing now. I want to replace it, but everwhere I have seen charges $99 for the piece. Anyone have an extra one or tips on where to find a deal? I would almost rather pay even more for the carbon fiber one just to avoid having to explain to my wife why the piece of plastic cost $99.

Default So, It won't fit with the Samco TBB?

I bought my car with the Samco hoses and have been looking for a cover. Good thing I didn't buy one, I guess.

You can trim the boot and it fits fine.

Default I recall SPP have a special on CF engine covers.

I saw on Audizine that Eric at SPP (SupremePowerParts.com) had some CF engine cover kits for $125. It may be worth it give him a ring.
