Default Question about valve cover?

Will this fit on a USDM 99 GSR Engine?

Pretty sure all B series VTEC heads use the same valve cover design.

Why don't you ask the company you're trying to buy it from?

jdm?? looks like any other ordinary itr valve cover. But regarding the paint issue, Honda uses VHt red wrinkle paint, you can just pick up a Gsr valve cover, paint it then bake it. I honestly never came across anyone who screwed up

Why would it need to be baked?

So when it drys it'll hold the paint. There is no difference between the size of a JDM and USDM GSR block so if it'll fit one it'll fit the other. Seeing how I don't think you got an answer. But honestly it's smarter if you just paint the cover that comes with the car, plus you'll respect you motor more cause you did the work.

not exactly, the reason it must be baked is because when you spray the valve cover, you dont instantly get the wrinkle effect until you heat up the paint to a high enough temperature
