what are your thoughts i realy cant decide :S

I quite like - Where from?

i bought it from ebay its for a lupo 1.4 16v but fitted with a tiny bit of trimming for the vvc actuator, ive never seen one before?

Its rather clean

My only criticism is it doesnt sport a nice VW badge, and you cant see the red leads and rocker cover, which i think sets the engine off quite nicely

Yeh that's what it's missing! A VW badge.. How can I forget!

I'm the biggest hater of carbon fibre, but that looks ok. Would be better if you could see the HT leads though.

i like that a lot have u got the link to ebay were you got it from?

I actually think that's quite nice would be interested in one myself. Was going to modify my original engine cover to get the same effect (chop of the bit that surrounds the old airbox) but have been told by several VW-owning friends that if I butcher my engine cover, they might butcher me!

it was a private sale, he only had the one, and ive never seen one before, apparently there £150 new but not sure where from, i paid £40 posted and its like new, i was toying with the idea of tracing out the centre cut out like on the original cover to see underneath but cant bring myself to cut it!

Maybe stick an adhesive VW wheel centre on it?

looks good

decided im keeping it lol dont look bad in a 6n

Looks good, I reckon an original design one in carbon fibre would look amazing. Especially in a bay like Tim's
