Thanks for the picture Zach!

No I don't have an "aol imer name"? Not too sure what that is, but I use to use ICQ to chat. Do you use this or does it even still exist?

i'm pretty sure you just take your current cover off (you may not even have to do that) and it just bolts on...it comes on 2k1 ae so take a look at one to see...to me, $100 isn't worth it...but if i do everything performance-wise that i want to do, i might go for this

Guys!!!!! Don't waste your money. I saw it in person last week & it's just a piece of plastic. It bends so easily... Sure it looks good but I wouldn't spend $100 for it. Use that money for an engine dressup job.

The AE "silver" covers goes over the existing cover visible in the engine bay. So, you can take the AE thingy and place it atop your 2000 (eg non-AE model).

Disclaimer: I have not done this, but I believe this is how it works.

Heeeyyyyyyy, that's my cheesy piece of plastic that bends that u saw! lol
I agree, I was all excited to se my cover until I touched it. I wouldn't spend the extra $$$. Take the 100 bucks and dress up the engine in colors.

Or you can just find an unlocked AE, pop the hood and remove the cover!

Thanks everyone! I will see one in person on Friday, so I can decide whether or not it's worth the $$.

Or I can just swipe it when he's not looking.

Joking of course!
