Bubble Tech Engine Cover (Coming Soon!)
We are currently designing an engine bay cover to hide the ABS system, Brake booster, lines and hoses along the firewall. They are very distracting and this helps clean up the engine bay appearance a great deal!
Material: 2x2 Twill Carbon Fiber
Price:TBD
Here are some pics of our progress
Some pics. We will update as we go along.
**NOTE** the straight lines will be complete and close the gap from the cover and strut tower, we are unhappy with how this came out so we are rethinking our approach

Looks awesome, great job so far! I can't wait for the final product I've always loved the knightsports one. Will this be a pressured carbon fiber product as well to add rigidity or replace the need for a strut bar or will it be designed primarily as a cosmetic cover?

Thanks for the comment. A few other people voiced this out along with the concern for oil dip stick access but this is purely for aesthetics so we decided not to add those for appearance reasons. We would image you would take this off for a track event as well as it would serve no purpose at the track (besides look really cool with the hood up!

David, Im un sure since i have no 3 rotor! I think 3 rotors will be trick as theres a few ways to mount the motor as far as sub frame placement... I think the 3 rotors might need to trim the cover to fit... Do you mind measuring how far away your manifold is from the firewall?

Awesome stuff Ben! I am loving this and the flat door panel. Sincerely, thanks for giving back to the community.
I have fallen way behind on my FD and have some catching up to do (and I am sure the fiance would probably love to get some bits out of our apartment and into the car), but would be interested in these two items in the future.

Does every 20b setup have the same position or a distance (tolerance) from firewall? Would it make more sense to have a standard cover and a 20b cover? Just saying . . .

My guess is that my car which uses the Pettit subframe is very close to the stock 13B location but I will measure to find out. Since the car is at Steve Osley's shop, I can easily compare it to the 13B stock location.
