Default Question: CF Engine Cover and CF Air Diversion Panel

Does anyone here have both?

I've seen the CF Greddy Air Diversion Panel but I've seen several different kinds for the engine cover and I'm not sure which one would best match the Greddy ADP.

Some of the engine covers are glossy and some have more of a flat sheen to them. Some of them have emblems while some are blank. The Greddy ADP looks to have a kind of flat sheen.

As much as possible I want consistency between the two parts. If anyone could help with some info and/or pics, it would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!

I have the Racingsolution CF Engine Cover. It has a nice gloss look to it. Just ordered the Greddy CF Air Diversion Panel and it should be here anyday now. Ill have pics as soon as I get it.

Just like slightly sand the engine cover and dull it out or something.

Kinda hard to see in this pic but my brother has the Racingsolutions c/f engine cover and the Greddy c/f ADP. They match up really well I think. The engine cover has a slitghly bigger weave to it but they look good together.

Thanks for the replies and the picture! It is kinda hard to see both pieces in the picture but it does confirm my concern that the engine cover would be more glossy than the ADP. Still looks good tho...

KJ, please post some pics as soon as you get it all installed!

OK here we go. PICS!!! The engine cover has a little bit more glossiness to it than the radiator cover. The Greddy cover does have some glossiness to it though. They look really good together.

Thanks for the pics KJ. Not the exact match I was hoping for but it still looks good nonetheless. Nice stuff!
