Hey guys

I was looking at some engine covers and it seems they come with different writing colours

mine is red but is not the Molten Red but the ralliart red yet others have silver

so can you post up the colour of your car, model of 380 and colour writing on the cover


Colour: Molten Red
Model: GT
Engine: Red

Car colour = platinum (silver).

Model = 2005 base model (i.e. "380").

Engine cover writing = silver.

KJ.

No colours. 2008 Platinum

I took mine off :D

BTW if you do this, just keep in mind my experience in very heavy rain. When the car goes through large puddles and spray goes up into the engine compartment, the engine starts to miss and the symptom is a deep vibration. The car doesn't want to accelerate but will hold its revs OK. It goes away after around 10 secs when the heat evaporates the water. I'm assuming this happens around the coil packs where there is high voltage and a leakage occurs because of the water.

The engine cover stops this happening pretty much so I put it back on if the weather is bad for a few days.

Why did you take it off?

And Mecha, congrats on another random thread lol

I want to see if there is a pattern

Why did you take it off?

And Mecha, congrats on another random thread lol

Drastically reduces heat around the fuel rail and inlet manifold.

And Mecha, congrats on another random thread lol

Well, thats seems Mecha's job in life...king of the threadmines and ,

like you say...."another random thread",though,one has to admit,that some of his topics are interesting...

So,to encourage his randomness and threadmining...



Colour: Stealth (black for those that dont know lol )
Model: GT
Engine: Red

Colour: Mawson White
Model: VRX S1
Engine: Red

I originally thought it changed with the series? series 1 and 2 being red, series 3 being silver and a majority of the 08 plates not having any colour at all. Then again Kj's is silver...

For the record:

Colour:Electro Blue
Model: SX series 3
Engine: silver

And im with Knotched on this one, I took mine off after I bought it

Colour:ralliart red
Model: vrx series 3
Engine: was silver but is now candy blue

I can't see any pattern here at all, seems to be pretty much random.

But it's early days yet, we need another 20 or 30 replies before Mecha can call it quits.

Speaking of random, maybe MMAL saw Mecha coming?

KJ.

mines same as yours mecha. series one gt, red writing with a silver logo.

Model :series one ES
Colour: Gold
Engine: Silver

yeah it looks like it was random

I dont like the red on the cover as it clashes with the Molten

Model: S3 Platinum Luxury
Colour: Molten red
Engine cover: raw black plastic

Model: SII Platinum
Colour: Stealth Black
Engine cover: Black cover with silver in-lay

Model: 2006 Series 1 Limited Edition (Base model plus extras)
Color: Stealth black.
Engine Cover: Grey with silver writing.

I assumed the VRX & GT all had red writing, with all other models being silver.

Mines a 2006 GT, Storm Grey. Engine cover writing is red.
