Swapped engine covers...(pics)

I swapped my engine cover with a 3.5 Altima. I like the dark grey one better.......what do you guys think ? I think a couple of you guys have done this too....

I've seen it done before...it looks pretty cool. Personally I prefer the grey one though, because it matches the grille, headlights/tails better...

Is that the EBay "Nismo" oil cap I see? Did you get the black one or the gunmetal one?

For anyone that likes Carbon Fiber, this one might look pretty good too:

It's not a thin, flimsy thing like CF door pillars.

You'll notice that it retains the stock mounting points and is a replacement cover...
