If you don't care about carbon fiber, the cover from a Camry is $119.50 from Sparks Toyota and AFAIK it will fit.

That carbon fiber one does look hot, but... tad pricey. Not sure if I'm digging the Toyota one, but those two are the only options out there? No others anyone knows of?

It would be nice to have one with some info, like the valves, Dual VVTi, or some other fancy badging

A cheaper route would be just to powdercoat the metal cover. That will make it look just as good as a plastic or carbon cover. And you can always buy some kind of badge and just stick it to the vlave cover. Just an option to look into

Can anyone confirm, or has anyone bought, the 2011 2.5L Camry cover, and is this what it looks like? About the best pic I can find and wanted to be sure before I order one:

I cant access photobucket on my work computer, but the 2010-11 Camry 4cyl engine cover will fit. The tC motor even has the ball joint bolts on them to put it on. I tried one with our showroom tC and our showroom Camry.

If that is the one we get to choose from, I may have to jump on it. Damn shame the ebay auction ended, $50 shipped is nice, but $115 from TRDSparks isn't that bad either.

This is an off topic comment I posted in another thread, but has a picture I took of a tC2 with the engine cover installed.

If you are going to shell out $$$ for a new engine cover, why not pay the $50 difference to have it look like this? You’re not throwing one out to install a Carbon Fiber one, you are just paying the difference.
