Where to find Engine Covers?

I don't know what the three pieces are called in the engine bay that cover the sides of the engine. I would like to buy them Asap so please let me know where I can find them.

You can also post a WTB ad in our black market. A lot of members here have removed those covers and still may have them lying around.

IAT? internal ambient temp? Or something under the hood? genuinely curious asking because if there is a measurable improvement, I will ditch mine. I've kept them because they are easy to polish up and make the engine bay look pretty.

I run no covers. The center one doesnt even fit with a manifold spacer.

Covers removed benefits: It probably reduces IAT, weight reduction, less chance of rattles (though if they're rattling, you probably have a different issue). I say probably because I haven't done an experiment (not sure anyone has) of IAT with and without them, but it makes sense in theory because air can't hold as much heat as plastic.

Covers retained benefits: looks pretty, especially if you paint them or overlay with CF or something.

I have mine chillin' and will probably never use them again.
