The Kobo Touch/Glo/Mini driver in calibre has options to generate the cover images and send them to the reader when it sends the book. The cover images are generated from the calibre metadata and are stretched so there won't be any bars down the sides. This only works for books in the main memory. Also, it only generates the images that are appropriate for the firmware version.
