I'm changing my mind a bit. As it would keep some dust out of the top of the engine.
I just watched the video on the installation. No need to pull out the two hose bracket that is in the front top right threaded hole on the '23s and used for the factory cover..

JCR should offer a group discount like other vendors on vehicle sites. Then I may bite.

Nice cover. I like the fact it probably lets the engine breath better than the foam rubber stock covers that were available.
I'm thinking of pulling off the 1.5 "foam" cover on our
Big Bend.....not sure if it is letting too much heat build up.

That’s such a GREAT look. That is next on my wish list. Last week I installed the JCR engine skid and the front bash plate. JCR products are top level and so is their customer service.

2 questions....

1) can you shim it, add spacers or something to keep the separator on?
2) was there anything inside your separator when you removed it?

thanks!

#2. I don’t think so, you would need longer hoses to fit underneath the cover and probably mount it somewhere different. #1. There was about a “tablespoon” of oil when I removed it after going 5000 miles

it is nice looking. My only concern is how much that metal will heat up! Potential for burns and would have to let it sit for hours to cool down if you have to get under it.
Maybe, but to remove it all you have to do is “pull up” as it sits into the ball mounts. Only time will tell.

Definitely like the looks of this. I bought and installed a factory cover on my '23 OBX last year, but if I ever trade in for a newer model, I will install one of these.

Earlier on the JCL site, I thought I saw $179 for the 1.5L and $199 for the 2.0L. Now both are $199.

You “were” correct, I think I got the only one at that price of $ 179.00
