Redevo561, Omarv6 - Go to www.ZakleeCorp.com for more info on the part.
Ru4real - It won't melt in this application, and believe me I've been trying to melt it here in Colorado when it's 93F out and I go up a steep canyon to get home.
Polycarbonate has a sufficiently higher melt temperature so that there won't be a problem.
Evo55 - I deepened the cover .100" because I was pissed that my Fidanza ground on the stock cover.
The cover fits all gears.
4G63>0000 - I just shipped you, Joe.

Clear Cam Gear Covers
Anikasama - You have PM.
Soon2bevo - The stock gears aren't ugly at all. Keep in mind that opening your hood when the engine's running and being able to see your gears spinning around while still protected from debris is what the product's all about.
Al - Thanks again for the kind words. The next product will be a "drivetrain lash reducer" that I'm prototyping, which will use an honest linear damper, a oil-based shock absorber, as the operative component. I believe that cars are built with engine mounts designed for the stock horsepower, and once you up the HP significantly, drivetrain lash becomes annoying. What do you think? I'll need a drag racer to field test this on. Do you know any?

anikisama - Bring it on. One with your name on it's sitting right here in the box!
EvOikon - Al copied the picture from my website - it's my engine - bone stock at least compared to Big Al's.
