^ It does look good. IDK one of my homeboys got popped for his hood and his cams were exposed. The cop wrote it down as "modified cams," when they were clearly stock. -_- Maybe its just Cali cops..

the only reason to do it is to adjustthe cam gears while tuning i have only had to do it once, and it only took a couple mins to take the cover off so i don't cut mine.

The only reason its "illegal" is because then cops can see if have aftermarket cams or not and the ticket you but if you have OEM cams is not "illegal"

..if you get my drift
