hi guys

(i have a 1.4 mk1 if it helps) i currently have a very horrible looking version of this rocker cover...

and was wondering if it was possible to change it to one like this...

is it do-able?

the engine pics are seanp-06's and baz_saxos (both very nice looking engines btw! :y: )

thanks tom :y:

was going to say did you want to spray, or change completly the change looks from the pics to be quite straight forward as all the pipes look to be in the same places? but just check that first !
