Anyone have any links to prefabricated engine cover kits for the TTQC/225? Not necessarily carbon fiber. The Stock one isn't bad, but mine has taken a beating over the years. I'm thinking about getting the metal engine cover hardware kit from ttstuff.com, but my cover is about finished.

 

Tcarbon has a CF engine cover...

GMP Peformance and TTStuff both carry the Carbino...

I haven't seen any other kits.... You could always clean them up and paint them.

 

Is that your engine?
I saw that engine in the Modshack galleries.

 

Yes, that is mine. It's going to change a little bit in the next few weeks. New Red Samco Intake hose, DV relocation kit and a Powdercoated Intake.

There is a 225 on the AW forum that uses about the same color scheme.

 

That looks real good. I like. Lightens up the engine bay a little.

 

Im guessing you "cleaned them up and painted them" on yours? It looks great.
I notice you got the metal cover hardware kit on there. Was that a PITA to install? Does that come with the hardware for the underbody engine splash cover that you have to remove to change the oil?

 

The insulation panel (skid Plate) wasn't included. I did take the time once to replace all of the speed nuts and Torx screws under there. The engine cover hardware kit was from 42 Draft Designs.... They don't have a kit specifically for the 180, but it was easy to adapt to work. All I needed make it work were a couple more aluminum washers, one bolt, and some body rivet nuts....

 

Mine is a 225 anyhow. I almost bought that kit from ttstuff.com but wasn't sure of how confusing it would be to install so Idecided not to. Yea, my skid plate needs more than just some new screws. I probably need a new skid plate. haha

 

On a difficulty scale of 1 to 10, that install is about a 2.
