Partial Lexan Engine Cover mod!
it cost me only twenty-five dollars for the hardware to do this to my engine cover. I think it looks far better than the carbon-fiber one or the stock look. The transparent lexan gives this a cool look, I sandblasted the center part of the lexan so the emblems would stand out. Let me know what you guys think.

here are some more pics, let me know if you have any questions.
If any of you want me to do modify your engine cover or airbox just send me a private message. I will give you my address. You will just have to let me know if you want to keep it black or if you want it painted. The only emblem that comes with the mod is the mazda emblem. You also have to let me know if you want the bottom side of the Lexan to be sand blasted, custom designs can be done.
I can also do the air-box, just let me know.

you can get Lexan in a multiple variety of colors,red, blue, green, purple, ect... I even tested using clear lexan with mirror tint, that looked really cool. I can make these things if any of you want to send out your engine cover. it only takes a few hours to make. I have access to a wide variety of tools and workshops here at the base I am stationed at. Thats how I made mine. The renesis emblem I got online, and the mazda one came from the dealership.
The engine cover is perfectly cut and the lexan has been cut and shaved to fit perfectly, I have even made a template for this thing.
