Can I drive without the plastic engine cover?
Hey guys, im a little new to this site. I have a 2004 rx8 and i love it. Today though my mom ran over the plastic renesis engine cover. Im trying to find a replacement but they are all around 75 dollars. Thats pretty expensive for a plastic lid. Anyway. Is it bad to drive without the plastic engine cover? If it is, does anyone know where i can buy one for a cheap price? Thank you

You're fine driving without it on... I've had mine removed for years.

No problem.
And check the Buy/Sell section... might be able to find one cheaper from a forum member.
