Peeps my new valve cover.
Nothin too special just shaved and painted my stock valve cover with black wrinkle paint. I think it turned out pretty good. I took a few pics...


looks good, make sure you stay proactive about keeping it clean and shiney. I didnt with my shaved/wrinkle coated vc and it became dull and doesnt look half as good as it did the day i sprayed it.

I took an air grinder and removed the HONDA letters, that took about 30-45 minutes. After that I just cleaned the valve cover w/ brake clean and sprayed it. You have to use a few heavy coates of paint. The paint took about 2.5 hours to dry cause it's pretty cold where I am at.

Agreed, I have only had the car for a few months. I have big plans in the future as far as motor/engine bay goes
. I have just been doing exterior and suspension mods for now.
