Would it fit on the R19 manifold? Did you just use normal engine paint for your rocker?

The clio manifold has holes for proper screws to go in. You can see the proper hole son the plastic a couple of inshed higher up.

Why not? May give some protection to the injectors... if nothing else makes it look neater.

ive used plasticote on the rocker and inlet man. works a treat. the inlet manifold has been drilled, but i used washers, so its pretty vacuum tight. hasnt caused me any probs in last 5-6k miles. worth it i think, keeps the injectors clean from road grime and the like.
