C8 Shock Tower Covers?

[crazylegs]

Why not remove the bolts or nuts that are rusting and coat them with never seize and reinstall?

I got mine from here.

Takes 10 mins to throw on.

It's really the only game in town unless you want to use one of these:

Unfortunately applying anti-seize will change the torque settings , this is not a good idea when suspension components are involved.

I wonder how easy it would be to design and then 3D print a set... I'll report back in a couple of weeks if I find some time

I saw an episode of B is for Build on YouTube where he had an app on an iPhone 12 (I believe) that could 3D scan an area. I don't remember how accurate the app is but it's mentioned in the video. Then you could take the scan into a 3D rendering software on a PC to make that piece. Sounds easy but it must be complicated.

It sounds too good to be true, but worth checking out forsure!

There are apps like this you can get, but only for the iPhone 12 Pro or iPhone 12 Pro Max that has the new LiDAR camera. This is a prefect use for LiDAR. You will see more and more apps like this available.

I also just installed some shock tower covers on my front strut castings. Bought these for $70.00 on Amazon.ca Just a molded plastic part for each.
The installation was very easy. I am happy with these. Just had to delete one harness clip in the side of one casting. Does not look like a big deal.
Pictures here to view. Yes lots of water does sit in the passenger side strut cavities. None in my driver side.

So those are the covers with the bump up if you have mag ride. They also make a version for no mag ride that are flat. I have no mag ride.

Yes they make a flat top version for non mag ride.

You think they will finally solve this issue & put covers on the 2022s? Or am I giving them too much credit ?
