I like their look. I think manufacturers have taken the engine cover theme too far. It's a mechanical device, and the more of it one sees,, the better it looks (even with the coil packs sitting on top)...it's functional, and that's where the beauty is. I would hate a race car that covered up the suspension just because it's unpleasant looking with tubes and arms and hoses, and nuts and bolts, and, bla bla blaa. Looking at a lot of plastic covering up a mechanical wonder is what is hideous, in my humble opinion.
