Construction & Design

The Spoon Carbon Plug Cover is manufactured using carbon fiber reinforced plastic, offering an excellent balance of strength, weight reduction, and surface finish. The component is precision molded to ensure proper alignment with the cylinder head and surrounding hardware on B-series VTEC engines. Its clean contours and carbon weave provide a motorsport-inspired appearance without altering factory functionality.

The glossy surface finish enhances visual depth while maintaining durability for long-term use in the engine bay environment. Spoon’s focus on fit and finish ensures the cover integrates seamlessly without requiring trimming or modification.

Performance & Function

This plug cover is primarily a cosmetic and protective component and does not provide measurable performance gains. Its lightweight construction contributes to a tidy engine bay presentation while offering minor protection for ignition components. As with most Spoon engine bay accessories, the emphasis is placed on quality, aesthetics, and authentic motorsport styling rather than performance enhancement.

Installation & Fitment

The Spoon Carbon Plug Cover is designed for direct bolt-on installation on Honda B16A and B18C engines. Installation typically involves removing the factory plug cover and securing the Spoon unit using the original mounting points. No cutting, drilling, or modification is required, making installation straightforward for both enthusiasts and professional installers.
