Midwest Auto Gear Shock Tower Cover Install

This install is so simple, I give it a '1' out of '10' for technical difficulty. Basically, anyone can install it.

Out of the box









Picture of stock strut studs



I applied a liberal amount of grease on the center strut stud (threaded end) because it's prone to corrosion and once covered, I doubt I'll ever take it off.



Cover set into position





Using firm pressure on the center of the cap, press down until it 'snaps' into place.







Shock (strut) Tower Covers installed.

New 2nd generation covers

 

As usual..... you the man!

Very simple indeed!

 

Looks great!!
I am going to have to add these to the "want list"

 

they look good! How much hp did they give you..j/k

 

Looks to hard for me, taking mine to the dealer............

 

Nice. Dang that engine bay is super clean. One of these days you need to start that car and drive it around some. j/k

 

That isn't a joke, it's very true indeed. Have you gotten close to 500 miles yet Bill ?

 

Funny you should mention that... I just checked yesterday when I backed it out from the garage to install the shock covers.

It's at 599 MILES.

I'll break 600 tonight when I go to my club's drive-in show. It's history in the making!

 

That might actually deserve a 0.2 on the difficulty scale, especially if you skip the grease step. Look good. I'll have to add them to the x-mas list.

 

They're on my list too. I want to wait until they have a version that will clear my STB. They should be available soon.

 

Looks good Bill..Can't wait for mine to show up and also for them to make their battery box

 

Looks good Bill. I think they look better on your car because of the two tone effect you get since your car isn't black.

 

I received an e-mail from Midwest saying mine were shipped yesterday

 

Looks great. Nice detail item.

 

Nice, great pics! Looks sweet!


Same here. Maybe I can email them to offer to send in my bar to test with and send me back with the bar some free covers

 

Sexy !!!

You are the man Taco Bill

 

Looks good but I prefer the strut tower brace. Maybe they will make something that will address that issue.

Another nice mod Bill!

 

I have the engine cover, so don't want the STB rubing on it.

 

Bingo!! These guys are awesome!!
Quick reply too

 

mine will be here today!!
