Yes, it was cheap for a student and I got a great deal. Why would I care about VW trying to protect idiots from themselves and hide their ugly ass 4cyl

literally me, one of my cover mounts broke when i was doing my cai :(

I think he's saying that they are for sound deadening with modern engines. My car can be heard ticking without it, being direct injection and complicated valve timing system, etc. They use these covers for aesthetics (because they want to hide the fact that their valve covers and intake manifolds are cheap shit now, back in the day engines looked good and didn't need covers) and to quiet the engine noises. No other use.
