Got a another side project with this at the moment. Although I love the k series for its sound, revvyness and easiness of jobs one of the bits I dislike most is the way it looks. In it's defence it is effectively an 80s engine however when I'm at shows I never open the bonnet because there's nothing worthwhile to look at. Most people either go the route of chrome everywhere 
or painting the metal cam cover which still doesn't float my boat
Now say what you like about honda engines but they have alot of customisation available of the engine covers (b series in particular) and look stunning. Even if the 1.6 16v TU engines look good imo.
With that in mind and remembering Rowells center caps I thought perhaps 3d printing might help solve my problem. So here's a quick bash using the spare covers in my room as reference points.
