Saw one this weekend which was a metal cover, polished up chrome or some shit. Then had turbo etched into it. Had the usual bits cut out for the throttle cable and breather pipe. Looked really good with the chromed camcover too

Donnas we've rubbed out the red Turbo, and sprayed the Turbo letters silver to match the chrome a little more.

I had my cover sprayed anthracite with the turbo lettering painted in silver to match the exterior paint. looked cool imo.

Copy the original but out of stainless, even cut "Turbo" out and have something under it, black perspex!
