personally I like how the polished aluminum looks, and of course you dont have all the extra weight from that paint slowing you down

I like how people say "I was just sharing it..not looking for opinions" are you retarded? You think your going to post up somthing and say hey guys just sharing ..and people will just say..ok thanks for showing us! and not say whether they like it or not? Your a loser. If people raved about your gay valve cover youd be so pleased with yourself but since they say it looks like crap you act like you werent looking for opinions. It is an abomination of a valve cover--sawdust and all
