I called about those covers and they are over $200 so I didn't order one yet but probably will if I don't find a blue one.

Vette, is that for a carbon fiber reservoir?

Can the stock reservoir be water-dipped (hydrographics or whatever the hell it's called) to have whatever design you want put on it?

If it were me I would just leave it be, doesn't really seem to stick out that much to me.

You know, painting it blue with the proper paint would be an option I hadn't thought of! I would leave a strip somewhere where you could see the level. To me it stands out like a sore thumb and will stand out even more when my P/S reservoir is replaced.

Yeah, there you go. I thought I had seen it done before. That would be perfect.

The merc part I posted is a cover. I think polished, and yes, a freakin cover from merc costs more than 500.

You can get the merc blue rattle cans for 25 bucks, probably only need one, plus a can of clear. Or better go with the carbon fiber dip method because that is bad azz looking.

I want my engine covers dipped now. What's the price? I have 6.2s so they are the small covers.
