I find the covers to be a huge nuisance whenever I wanna do something under the hood. You think if I lined the underside of the covers with some padding that it'll surpress more of the engine noise? I can't see retaining heat a good thing. Seeing as i was adjusting the headlights and the fan kicked on and the rush of engine heat almost burned my face off lol
I'm also thinking about taking them off and just getting the main cover in the middle painted! Definitely just get in the way, but I'd keep em if I were you just incase you want to get rid of your car, it'll look better to have them.
