Default Spoon Valve Covers: Who Sells Them?

Ive seen many pics on HT and elsewhere with Spoon Valve Covers on their rides but have never seen a place where they got them from. When I ask all I get in responce is "I got it in Japan at Spoon" "Ichi brought it to my shop and gave it to me in person" "I bought it off a Japanese friend" etc etc. Anyone know an actual store that sells them? Ive never even seen pricing for them.

from my understanding, because i've called a dozen places about Spoon Valve Covers, is that they are on back order til like march. No one is getting shipments in until then. Ask around a little more, or maybe someone else on this board knows better than i do, but that's my understanding of it

$430 for a fukcing valve cover?!?!?! Hahahahaha HELL NO! They cost less than half that at the dealer and the CTR VC costs under $200 also. They are charging an additional $200 for a can of Krylon? No offense but fuuuuuuuuuuuck that... If there were some type of performance benefit then I could see why, but there isnt...

Wow $420 at AJ Racing and $260 at Opak. Huge price difference for the exact same thing.

You are correct... Thats why I choose to buy real deal parts and not Rotas or some other knock off... But thats kinda ridiculous for something that doesnt do anything except look pretty... I have a CTR VC that an exgf gave me and another vc painted gunmetal that a friend gave me for my bday... They both look great, I just cant see spending that much... Again you are correct, to each his own...

$260 is do-able. That makes more sense... $420 is just outrageous...
