Alternative VR6 engine cover plastic?

[ABV-VR6 12]

Imagine how much it would worth now, £1500 ha! Mine has the standard ones I think, and like every one they are both cracked! Got replacement lens for them though. 

I knew I would get some fisherman to talk with my reel analogy! Yes Daiwa in japan, very nice stuff as well!

That looks in good nick is that one of your spares mate. 

[1xshaunx1 27]

It is mate yes. But the smudge marks on it won’t come off, so was thinking of spaying it up, apart from that it’s pretty good.

Ah lads, we are getting very over excited about what is at the end of the day a piece of painted plastic - even looks a bit lurid to me.

Steady on - you’ll be driving up the prices of these! Now if it was a genuine Pierburg VSR plate......

Try a tiny bit of carb cleaner ?

They are very expensive for what they are anyway fen. They get cracked with people leaning in the wrong place when looking in the engine bay, I didn’t know nothing about that till someone broke mine, I’ve struggled like hell fo a year to get a really good one, but thanks to Keyo’s spot a couple of weeks ago I now have a good standard one as well as a couple of spares if some breaks my new one.

Ha ha - I even know of some who still hoard parts even though they don't have one any more - just out of habit or "in case"....

I suppose it’s because good stuff is so hard to get you can’t let something go or pass it up. Speed line centre caps are the latest.

Yep there seems to be not much difference in price for a set of caps and a set of wheels with caps. I noticed GRYP are making Sebring ones which are a lot more complex.
