Default Custom Fuse Box Cover

Hey guys always have hated staring at that damn ugly fuse box and hated the fact grandprix owners get a cover yet our engines didn't, got the idea from another member I saw a while ago can't really remmbr but his was polished I believe, cut a cover out of aluminum bent it painted over it a gloss black turned out really nice let me know what you guys think! Jeff

Oh and let me know what you think about either keeping it straight like that clean or adding a simple sticker to it maybe a red vertical monte carlo logo with a horizantal SS? Idk just an idea

Looks good.. Install a Monte sticker on it..

I think you need to get engine / rad mounts from venture van..
here's a pic of mine..

I just kept wondering if a Grand Prix fuse panel could be swapped for a Monte fuse panel....

But that is a great little mod to "hide" the panel!!

Hey thanks zjerry I think it turned out really good and yea I nice monte logo sticker would be really clean I think too, love your rad mounts there man where did u say they are from venture van?
And yea maniac I scooped up a grandprix cover from the scrapyard started a project making a fibreglass mold of it, its not an exact fit the grandprix has one single redtab at the top ours has two on the side so decided its a lot easier to cut up a cover looks cleaner then the normal fusebox hated looking at that thing
