Shamed Into Installing New Nostalgic A/C Cover

RE: Shamed Into Installing New Nostalgic A/C Cover
How about an EVO cover with the insert peeled off? I got this one for about 2 bucks. It bolts right on the the SE Stage I backing plate. Just put a couple of rubber washers between it and the filter element and maybe some stick on 1/4 weather stripping to soak up the vibes and keep the elements center from cracking. I learned this the hard way.

That looks great. I bought one and even with the thick gasket, with the K&N filter, it isn't spaced out far enough. I've been thinking about puting a spacer under the center of the cover.
They now make a plain round chrome one without the logo. It fits fine, but doesn't look near as good as yours.

The dimensions for the HD 29442-99D filter used with the 'Stage 1' conversion are; 5 1/2" across at the top, 6 1/2" across at the base (bottom), and 2 1/4" deep...

Can you get a chrome screw or allen bolt to replace that stock one?

That way you don't have to worry about it rusting on you.
