Default engine too loud

I need help to reduce engine noise...in switzerland was 2 db too loud to get through the test (rediculous) and I need some engine covers? Exhaust was fine..just engine sound.

Any idea what engine covers I need? For a 993 c4s

Part number or used ones for sale please let me know

If you are talking about the lower engine tray, many people here in the US take them off and probably would have them sitting around.

You'll also need 5 of each: #16, 17 and 18 as well as the retaining clips on the engine tin and brackets if they are no longer in place.

That engine noise does tend to resonate between the Furka and Grimsel passes.
