The RB25's cover has that bump in it for the NVCS whereas the 26 is just flat. You might have to work with it a little and be creative to make it fit right. And it'll still say "RB26".

True, however he's asking for fitment on a rb20 (w/o the NVCS)

I might just test fit a 26 cover on a 20 for everyone to see what it looks like = crap
