Spark club engine cover for 1.7 VTEC - where can you find?

Back in the day you used to see a lot of chrome pieces, carbon fiber, or different colors such as red. Anyone know where you can get an aftermarket piece for an 01-05 1.7L? Haven't seen any anywhere.

yes, I meant spark PLUG - don't know why the heck I typed that. That black plastic piece on top of the engine. Seems kind of cheap, and mine's got some scratches on it. Was hoping there was some better looking ones out there.

i know a few people have carbon fiber ones, but to get a red one, you're gonna have to paint it yourself. this has been covered before. search.

Yea, you just simply paint it. I used red high-temp caliper paint. Here's mine if it helps you:

i've been able to get away using regular car paint on it (such as duplicolor).. then again, i used the plastikote ceramic engine paint clear coat on it, too.. on that, the ignition coils, and my fuse box cover..

2 hours and $7 later.. i went ahead and copied Honda Inspired and painted my letters.. the high heat paint is probably overkill.. but oh well.

What about an aluminum cover by Allman? I read about that in another post. Anyone know where you can find this? I did a search on the web and nothing came up.

yeah, i painted mine too, as well as the fusebox cover. Looks ok to me.

But i know that www.dgmotorsports.com sells a CF cover for like 90 bucks. Not a bad deal if you ask me. Heres a linkhttp://www.dgmotorsports.com/details...&ProcessType=1
