ENGINE COVERS TO FIT EL - LOOKIN FOR ANY ENGINE COVER THAT CAN FIT ON TO A EL MOTOR, ITS A 6 SO IT JUST LOOKS VERY BORING WHEN THE BONNET IS UP. AND WAS WONDERING IF THERE IS ANY COVERS I CAN PUT ON IT, LIKE A AU OR SUMETHING, IF YOU HAVE PICS OF WHAT YOU HAVE DONE WITH YOUR EF/EL IF YOU COULD PLEASE ATTACH THEM, THANKS :)

no they do not exist. you talking shrouds and stuff right where on earth would youput on on the intake side? what would you do with the exhaust side that is not gonna melt? Best thing to fill the space on the exhaust side is a snail, then you don't want to cover it up.

the e series wasnt made with any form of engine cover, there is a cover on the front of the power steering pump across the top of the serpentine belt but thats about it in the way of covering the engine

A radiator cover would be a great addition to the stainless exhaust shield.
