I am manufacturing the following Carbon Fibre engine items as the introductory items in a range:

1) Injector Cover
2) Spark Plug Cover
3) Airbox

Interested parties please respond to the poll indicating the options you would be most interested in.

There is a possibility of manufacturing these pieces in coloured carbon fibre. i.e actual colored carbon powder (not painted carbon fibre).

Aluminium inserts would be optional extras and comprise of a tastefully designed decorative insert in the carbon fibre.

As each piece is designed a VRML model will be posted to the board for your scrutiny and to enable you to have input into the design of the item from drawing board to finished product.

1. Yes
2. Yes
3. N/A (aftermarket CAI).

Just a thought though Muz...if price isn't a consideration then my point is void, but I would think those that are seeking such aftermarket dress up items probably are also in the market for an aftermarket CAI, which would render the Air Box offering useless, unless of course someone has designed a system utilizing the stock air box and then your research, time, $$ would be well spent. Then again, maybe there are lots of owners who have no desire for changing the intake, but after all the CAI threads I read in here, I can't imagine they're in the majority.
