Default $10 A/C Cover from the Plumbing Aisle

I missed out on a SE Cover on Ebay so I was looking around for options to get rid of the football cover. I saw one of these wall covers in the restroom at a gas station and it looked like it would do the trick.

Its 6" so its a tiny bit bigger then the air filter but you only notice it if you look at it closely. I was at a Mom and Pop store so they may have a better selection at Hope Depot.

The hole if already the same size as the bolt so I just put it on in the parking lot. Its not very thick but it shines and does the trick. Ive had it on for a few days and so far so good.
