Mines beat up. It's missing a cap, scratched to hell and the dealer says they can't get the fastener cap for some reason. I'm thinking I'll just replace the whole thing w/new 'caps' to spice up the engine bay. I've done some searches. No luck. A nice CF one or some kind of euro variation would be nice I suppose

You can always take the old one and paint it. If not then ask Phil to see if he still makes the CF cover. http://vitessetuning.com/

I think Tyler has the Vitesse CF cover. Check his gallery/posts, I remember seeing pics.

ohh yeah CF bling. Not that I'm a big bling person but that might go nice with my newly rondel blue powdercoated valve cover:cool:. I love that color. I knew someone who painted there 2002 tii Rondel Blue. It looked awesome on that car with a set of mini lites

Thanks I'll check it out

I just talked to Phillip at Vitesse. Nice guy.There in Montreal Canada and it's a made to order item.

He says they use a brand new OE part and laminate the CF to it. He's gettin' back to me on price and time frame later today by email

Phil is a good guy and he has a HOT Hartge ti! :biggrin: Met him and saw his ti at the Bav auto show in NH a couple of times. He is on this forum from time to time. Check out his link.

You guys are making me blush...:icon_redf

It's always great meeting up with members at shows and I've had great feedback from all of our 318ti.org clients.

As mentioned we still have the CF spark plug covers on a made to order basis.
For all those interested the price is $64.99 + $10 S&H within the US.

Here's a recent pic:

Excellent. Not a bad price considering you have to use and OE part to start. I'll make sure to post some pics when it's on:cool:
