You said engine cover, not intake... Mustangs don't even have an engine cover.

The guy is a doctor. He's trained to not look under the hood unless there's a nurse in the room with him. Old habits die hard.

I actually contacted a company about having Carbon Fiber covers made

They wanted to use my ABS covers as a template. I backed out because

I didn't like the idea of shipping my covers to a company I didn't know much

about.
