Is that block overspray from the header paint all over the rest of the engine and wiring??
And FYI, engine temp does not get over 250 so most any spray paint is fine for valve covers.

Its chill for a personal paint job. Would be better if ya left the VTEC a different color. Bit I just repainted mine also. From blue to gloss black with silver VTEC. looks clean
