Hey guys anyone know anyone or someone that sells CF engine cover for our IS-F. I know FIGS was working on one but idk what happened.

 

I'm not aware of any company that makes one yet. You can always wrap yours. The center section might be tough though.

 

Any place that makes CF parts should be able to make you one. It might cost a pretty penny but I doubt you care about that.

 

i know the 2011 has it, so u might want to trade with a 2011 owner or see if you can get it from sewell, ltuned or any other vendor that sell oem parts. I'm not sure if it fits though.

 

Really.....pics???

 

Pretty sure the 2011 cover is the same as the 2008-2010 cover just in black instead of silver. I do not believe it is real CF at all.

 

^ I doubt it's real CF. There's no reason for it to be

 

I would be so worried about a super expensive CF engine cover would yellow with our motors heat... I think its risky stuff. The 2011 is just a black colored isf engine cover just like the silver one on earlier models.

 

whoops over looked that one, its not real cf but painted black like our 2008. still looks hot.

 

Contact fig directly. He may part with prototypes if you offer a good deal

 

I have 2011 and can confirm there is NO CF in engine cover. The color is black on left and center section it has rough finsh, on the right it has sort of faux CF on right.

 

^^want to trade hehehe. mines look like urs except the black engine cover.

 

Thanks guys, I like the 2011 but want to get the real CF for dressing up the engine lol

 

Im guessing the F sport one for the isx50 will not work?

 

I was too concerned about the heat. I actually leave my passenger side cover off and engine cover off for summer driving. No need for it and it just helps to heat soak the manifold even more. I keep the passenger side cover off so the solenoids don't have trapped heat right on the carbon at all time.

I really wish we could buy an affordable carbon fiber oem style hood, but with some very very clean functional louvers to help dissipate heat. I would buy one, paint and install immediately!

I want to really spend the time to relocate the injector drivers to be on the sides of the engine so the manifold is nice and clean and can be iced down for hot track days. I think its possible with 0 wire modifications and I am confident I can make it look oem. The only question will be if the pretty oem cover will pop back on and off...
