The only way to make any cover in a sohc engine bay is for it to be a gt28rs compressor cover on a topmount. THe fake-mugen one looks cleaner than stock though.

I also have a wrinkle paint blue one that i bought at a shop for $20. It's kinda cool. But i like my bronze one better. It doesn't take much to paint. Just make sure you cover the plug holes and oil fill hole and you should be good. I put some clear coat on mind to keep it from chipping in the future.
