You guys find some weird stuff to be irritated about... For an cheapo car that includes this much stuff, they can leave some superfluous stuff and I won't complain. When I get a major discount on a hotel room, I don't care if they don't leave a mint on the pillow!

Our engine looks like garbage without the cover.

I'd much rather take off the valve cover and polish it after lots of sanding if I was going for flashy looks.

Adding plastic degrades the aggressive look of an engine.
