    So I love the looks of our SC but being its not polished/painted so should i run the cover? I show the car and color scheme is grey/black/red and my cover is black with painted red lettering. What do you all think would look better?

    take the cover off. it holds heat in, and its better to show off the m90

    I'd also have to say take it off, depends on your overall engine theme though.
