i made the template with a shoebox and my buddy programmed the big fat laser mashine at work to make this tranny cover of aluminum - to hide the ugly tranny and the PCM/TB wiring (and the big fat HKS BOV - because that is forbidden in Germany) under it.
i really like the new clean look of my engine bay!
(compare to the "before" picture when i bought her!)
when i bought her:
the ugly chaos under the cover:

^^ paper board shoe box. so it is printed with shoes....
all changins to "exhaust gas and noice behavior" are forbidden here and so is the bov.
no chance to get it inspected.
same for the CAI.
but hey, no one here knows the SRT so i tell them it was imported like that and it is all part of my special individual inspection.

Looks good!
Note:
It would be laser cut. Gotta love the english language. It is one of those words where the tense is skewed.

Yeah, 'cut' allows multiple tenses in the English language; one of the many quarks.

I like it too.
Is it possible to get a template to get it cut locally?
Like, a JPG file with dimensions?

Don't know if we can save the programm from the laser.
But - I can tell my buddy to make some more of them. PM me!
(Hush - that was my secret plan...)
Btw:
Quark is the german word for some food made of milk. You call it curd cheese.
It is also the name of a Peugeot concept car.
Furthermore it is the name of that Ferengi barkeeper in deep space 9.
