Ok, here's the final pictures of the engine cover. I picked it up from the engraver today after they etched the logo onto it.
Be on the lookout for a few more covers like this to be posted, but each with their own little twist.

I started with a plain aluminum MicroImage engine cover, had a metal fab shop cut it to fit the body of the supercharger, a plating shop anodize it blue, and an engraver etch the MicroImage logo through the blue anodizing. What you see is the aluminum stock material exposed again.

Wait, I don't see the Yaris World logo... only the Micro Image sticker (or is that an engraving too)?

Mine cost the most because I had the work done as a one off. Camelll, Doc Zaius, and Kurokuma-kun were able to split many of the costs because there's were done together. If there are other S/C who want in on this, they should get in on your order. I don't make any money on this and just pass the costs on to you all.

So how much would this be when it's all said and done if we went with the black.
I wouldn't want anything engraved. I want to keep the cost down. I am broke as a joke right now. You have no idea. |

i like. i'm kinda gunna work on getting a carbon fiber engine cover. but if i cant get that done then i could consider this if it were anodized red without the micro image. nothing against micro image, i just like a clean look.

I basically don't have money for this right now. Sorry.

Garm is selling them in TRD red, with no etching, I think.
