That will look pretty good once it's blacked out.

I hate covering the engine since it gets in the way, but I was thinking about how it would look with an NA-T set up by extending the passenger side plastics (lol KKKalifornia)

I think that on the cover, instead of a lexus symbol, it should have lexus written in big letters. I think that would offset the symbol on the timing cover.

Does it bolt up to the VVTI version? If not how did you attach it?

if you get is/gs exhaust side valve cover and the intake manifold, you will have mounting points for the engine cover already.

Fabbed up my own points. Used JB weld, but that didn't work, I am going to try to weld the bolts on because I don't want to do any drilling.
