Title: Engine cover options
Post by: noelmm on 25 June 2013, 15:38
Hi all,

Just got myself an S3 strut brace with plans on fitting it when I get some new shocks and springs and doing them all in one go but before I do I was wondering if there are any engine covers that will work with my TDI (arl) and the strut brace as I know my current cover will need to come off.

Thanks everyone

If you really want the cover on modify your one.

Thought about running without it and modifying it but can't really decide, does the cover offer any noise reduction if running with it

That's my mind made up then, away with the cover.

Thanks everyone

Heat up the back part of it with a heat gun where they touch and bend it down.
