how many coats of paint did you use on that valve cover? and where did you get your half moon cuts done? were they also a DIY project? id LOVE to do this to my valve cover.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Yes, I did everything myself. That's about 2 thick coats of paint.

I have always wanted to do that to my valve cover, but I also wanted to add/weld a couple chunks of metal so I could carve "**** YOU" in to the top where it says DOHC VTEC and where the honda emblem is have a middle finger. I wanted to do the same where it says B16.

some one make one like this and I'll buy.

edit: I WANT CREDIT FOR THIS IF ANYONE MAKES ONE

AS far as i know there is only red, black and grey. And they are avilable thru http://www.pjhbrands.com/vht/wrinklefinish.htm

The only prob is that it takes FOREVER to get them from them.
