for the cost of the Eclipse MIVEC cover, Go get yours Custom Powdercoated.


Make it look nicer.

That's funny. IMO the RA's looks nicer, and the Eclipses' looks cheap. Oh well, I guess the grass is greener..

still powdercoating ranges from $50-$200... and you can get it in like, 6000 diff colors... and it looks Shhhhhhhnazzy.

Plus It's heat resistant and i don't think it's able to crack... not like paint... it's baked.

hey guys i just drove the v6 eclispe today and its pretty damn fast. i believe the Evo is going to have some problems with this car cause its either neck and neck or just a little bit slower. maybe about a 1/4 of a sec. it scratched 1st,2nd,3rd,4th also. i drove the 6 speed and i was also told there are already parts out for it. im seriously thinking about getting it but when i got back in my car. my acceleration was about the same. i scratch in all gears except 4th and 5th. but that mivec sure knows how to throw you back. no need for a turbo!

Oh man, that's awesome. I should go to my local dealer and test drive the Eclipse too.
