I have finalised 2 covers with the measurements as perfect as I could with a quality steel ruler

Just the top section atm - I can only offer eps format cause my dxf option is no longer avail :(

Any preferences between these 2 covers?


The first is more like an LZ while 2nd would look better with nissan red and black on both sides

these will suit the smoothed ca18det on the far right with hks cover

I just quickly knocked this up. Took me around 15 minutes. It's a little bit unrefined, but the general shape/style is there.

I based it off the 'approximate' dimensions of just looking at the EPS image provided and didn't import the EPS and work off that which would take a little longer. DXF would be ideal for me, but I can use the EPS as long as I know what the scale is.
Regardless the detail is there and if I was provided a drawing with dimensions, I could update the CAD to suit fairly quickly. Better still, if provided with the actual engine/rocker covers it would be even better.
Material thickness was a guess.

Very impressed with the looks of both samples!

They are missing a few details, like countersinking the screw holes (I need to know what socket head screws are required). But it's all fairly straight forward...

Sorry Nik couldnt get to call today broke a molar biting into a pizza with hidden olive pip last night broke upper rear molar woke up with painful inflamed jaw and ear today. Ten dollar pizza turns into a fortune in emergency repairs. Ceramic CNC molar cap is way more expensive than cnc billet - not the cheerfullest person today :(

Thanks Anth opinions are great at this stage having trouble choosing :lol:

you can polish any of them even machine a 2mm deep lines on original machined factory rockers too like sample below, colour is painted, rest is polished alloy.
