Default HELP me find this valve cover.....heres a challenge

Ok i am looking for the same valve cover in the link below but for 96-00 civics. SOHC of cource. I have searched all over the web and cant find anything and i have already tryed asking the seller but he never!!!!! responds. Allso i dont want one that has tenzo r, or type r or any crap like that on it. It must say honda. Also If you know any shops who would do a custom cover like that one, provide the site.

Also it must be crinkle red, i want that same color, and texture.
Thanks for all your help

talk to blownsol, his name is al, and if you send him your valve cover, he can get that coating. blownsol is his name on automotive-tech.org not sure if he is on this board or not.

It looks like a 5th gen d series non-vtec valve cover. They probably change the look from generation to generation, so you'd have to definately go custom.

Whats your turn around time on those?

otherwise, check out http://www.ssautochrome.com they have sohc/dohc non/vtec covers, but it will cost you more than Blackcrx's will.
