That looks nice...

I like the look of the ARC and plan on getting it because it has those 3 vents on the side... but other than that for the price that looks decent...

It covers alot less area than the ARC cover and you can barely read the logo - I know, I have it.

Bummer about not being able to see the bits, though.

also isnt arc titanium? this one is aluminum. ARC is hot but for $58 you can't go wrong with the beatrush.

I could never get those sites to work right. It always says install language pack then it says to install disc number 1 :mad:

I think you will be fine if you have NJstar in your PC. They won't ask you anymore.

From the site"

"A+ fitment and made of 1.2 mm-thick Aluminum with a Gold Alumite Finish to prevent rust"

rust on aluminum? Piece looks good though. Don't know if I'm real confident of its mounting though.

beatrush does not make "cheap" parts--they test all their parts and known more for track parts than dress up

they come from japan just like the abby road parts but they just don't carry the same price tag

well... what I'm trying to say is beatrush alternator cover is pretty cheap compared to the arc one... I always like beatrush parts myself :D thinking about getting their underbody panel soon :)

i just went through the catalog, NICE stuff. Of course $$ is definetly a factor, but I think I'd get one of everything!!!!!

Now just take the label off the ARC one, and have it powdercoated to the red fine finish similar to the intake manifold, put the label back on and it would look even better..... ;)

Is there any way we can get the ARC all different colors from heat...? Like the EVO one? I know I have seen a picture but it's all different shades of purple and blue from them holding a torch or heat treating it... I think that would look kick ass for our cars!

-Nigel


EDIT: found it:

Can we get ours like this!?

It covers the pulleys better to prevent any dirt or rocks to fly in their. BEATRUSH participates in a lot of rally events and circuit, so their parts are usually rally and circuit minded.

That's their English version, but they have more to go.
